This document discusses DevOps environments with OpenStack and NetApp. It introduces B1 Systems GmbH, a consulting firm focused on DevOps. The presentation covers software development approaches, tearing down walls between development and operations teams, DevOps toolchains including automation and standardization tools, and using OpenStack with NetApp hardware for cloud environments. NetApp drivers allow OpenStack services like Cinder and Manila to integrate with NetApp storage systems.

• Never touch a running system
• Risky deployments
• Pray that it works
• Developer mindset
• Works for me
• Isolated/splitted teams
• “them“, “us“
• Worked fine in Dev, Ops
problem now
