This book is aimed primarily at managers and individual contributors in leader‐ ship roles who see friction within their organizations and are looking for concrete, actionable steps they can take towards implementing or improving a devops culture in their work environment. However, individual contributors of all levels who want practical suggestions for easing some of the pain points they face will find actionable takeaways.

The audience is made up of a mix of professional roles, as devops is a professio‐ nal and cultural movement that stresses the iterative efforts to break down informa‐ tion silos, monitor relationships and repair when misunderstandings arise between teams in an organization. Many may be leaders within their organizations who have worked closely with developers or operations engineers.
