Businesses across the world are turning to automation to drive efficiency and simplicity. But for many, automation doesn't work as quickly or seamlessly as they'd like. In most cases, that's because leaders are thinking of operations from an operations and infrastructure perspective. There's a third equally critical component — automated platforms — that must be considered. Join WWT Senior Practice Manager for Automation Phillip Palmer as he discusses how automated platforms relate to other core areas of automation, such as infrastructure and operations. Phillip also talks about the teams and roles that stand to be most impacted by automation initiatives and how organizations can work toward automation unlocking a self-service model moving forward.

As we approach the 15th anniversary of DevOps, we find ourselves at a crossroads. While DevOps was initially conceived to break down silos and enhance communication for stability, reliability, availability, and security, the proliferation of tools has unintentionally created new complexities and silos. What if we could embark on a paradigm shift, rather than an incremental one, based on lessons learned along the way? In this presentation, System Initiative reflected on the lessons learned throughout the DevOps journey and explored how we, as a community, can transform how we collaborate to build and maintain complex infrastructure. Whether you're a seasoned DevOps expert or just embarking on this journey, this talk will provide valuable insights into the role you can play in ushering in the "second wave of DevOps." We'll discuss the capabilities we see as necessary in a new platform and explore what's possible when we are no longer constrained by the current state of the system that we, together, have created over the last 15 years.
