This document summarizes a presentation on DevOps in e-commerce given by Aarno Aukia of VSHN AG. It introduces Aarno and VSHN, defines DevOps as collaboration between development and operations, and lists benefits like infrastructure as code, continuous integration/testing, and automation. The presentation demonstrates how DevOps allows product owners to validate ideas faster through automated software delivery and deployment to testing environments. It promotes VSHN's APPUiO platform for managed Docker and Kubernetes hosting.

What is DevOps ?
●
Collaboration between Development (Dev) and
Operations (Ops)
●
Bring agile software engineering methods to operations
●
Automation: infrastructure as a code,
versioning/rollback
●
Testing: continuous integration/testing/deployment
●
Bring operations engineering experience to developers
●
Scalability: independent microservices
●
Production insight: monitoring/logging/metrics
●
Together: make the application's owner happier

5. VSHN AG I Neugasse 10 I 8005 Zürich I T 044 545 53 00 www.vshn.ch
Dev & Ops collaboration
●
Bring together Developers & Operations
●
Practice agile Operations Engineering
●
Counter fear of change with (automated) testing
●
Provide developer and development infrastructure
●
Tools for developers, preferably self-served

6. VSHN AG I Neugasse 10 I 8005 Zürich I T 044 545 53 00 www.vshn.ch
Infrastructure as code
●
Change from hand-groomed servers to Operations
Engineering (from pets to cattle)
●
Speed & reliability
●
Versioning & rollback
●
Prerequisite for self-service
●
Give each developer a full stack
●
No manual changes in production
●
As many testing instances as needed

7. VSHN AG I Neugasse 10 I 8005 Zürich I T 044 545 53 00 www.vshn.ch
Infrastructure tools
●
Packaging code & dependencies for atomic
deployment/rollback
●
Docker
●
Infrastructure state management (configuration mgmt)
●
Puppet, Salt, Chef, Ansible
●
Continuous Integration/Testing/Deployment
●
Jenkins/TravisCI/GitlabCI/Atlassian Bamboo
●
Self-Service
●
Vagrant/Docker or through Continuous Deployment to
testing infrastructure

8. VSHN AG I Neugasse 10 I 8005 Zürich I T 044 545 53 00 www.vshn.ch
Infrastructure testing
●
Bring software engineering best practice to operations
●
Large complex infrastructure (as code) → many moving
parts
●
Unit testing each module (webserver setup, database
setup, cache setup, etc)
●
Functional end-to-end testing of full stack (request to
cache delivers content from database)
●
Basically the same thing as production service monitoring
but for each change
●
From YoloOps to NoOps to RelaxOps
