This document discusses DevOps KungFu, which focuses on how organizations build and operate at a high velocity. It compares KungFu and WuShu martial arts concepts to DevOps practices. The key DevOps practices discussed are: 1) Empowered teams, 2) Choosing tools that fit the job, 3) Using post-mortems to learn from incidents rather than blame, 4) Automation, 5) Continuous delivery, and 6) Practicing incident response. Quotes from Star Wars are included throughout to relate concepts to DevOps.
