With the move to cloud, the increasing amount of automation, and the increasing <em>importance</em> of automation, Ops as we know it is reinventing itself out of necessity. Infrastructure is becoming more and more sophisticated—and commoditized—and practices are just now starting to grow up around that. So while some worry about robots taking our jobs, the reality is more about how automation will help augment us to build better software and focus on higher-value things. It’s not so much about the <em>distant</em> future—whatever that may hold—so much as it is about the next five to ten years, what Operations looks like in that timeframe, and why I think it has to retool.</p>
