this is solid knowledge...you indirectly just helped me. I have noticed banks are slowly trying to get into devops but it just seems like a half ass measure. Capitol One seems to be the only financial firm I have seen that has adopted Devops and cloud computing in a real way.

Isn't it crazy?

They clearly have the capital but they are really stuck in their ways when it comes to development and sdlc.
I haven't worked with Capital One but I would like to if they actually embrace Devops

@The Wave Bro you're out here really helping nikkas. This is what TheColi needs more of. Straight career knowledge.

Preciate it breh, I just wanna see more of us in this field :wow:

Plenty of brehs are coding, which is good, but we need more enterprise level developers.
The money is out there for sure

I wanted to make one slight correction for anyone who might be a little confused.

I said multiple times above that Master is never edited. And in an ideal world.. it isn't. Its only destroyed when a release candidate is good to go, and that release candidate became the new master. However, there is a caveat to this that i'm sure everyone is aware of (its also in my slide)

This is a Hotfix.

A Hotfix is required when you promote a release candidate that has a very damaging bug that simply cannot wait for the next code sprint. The main difference is that when working on a Hotfix, the developers pull directly from master (not dev) and when they are finished they submit a pull request back to master.

Only the top top top top Project Admin can unlock master branch, commit the changes, and then re-lock master.



So whenever you hear the term "hotfix", that basically means someone fukked up in Dev or QA :mjgrin:

When the development team is responsible for the development/deployment and maintenance of an application.

Instead of relying of matrix teams for varied support....:sas2:

Current CompSci student now but in the future after getting some experience in SoftWare Engineering how would I transition into devops roles?

@The Wave

@PaperEnterprise

so what's the work/life balance ?

most people think you have to be in management to get 6 figure salaries. I can do that, but I rather not, someone else said you can make as much as a manager does while only doing a 9-5 schedule and not worrying about working when you are off?

Is this true?
