55. Think you are
ready ??
Really ??

56. That’s not an end, just the beginning !
Focusing on TOOLS ONLY will surely make you fail a

Team spirit and
innovation
games !!

57. Successful deployment with a colleague via chat. Next morning, the prospect has
contracted with us !

58. “true” DevOps is a lot more complex than “cheating”
with “Dev Tool” that often ignores ITIL ingredients!
