Are developers and DevOps converging?
-
A long-term trend is happening across large and small companies, and that is the convergence of developers, those who code apps, and DevOps, those who maintain the systems on which apps run and developers code.
Becoming DevDevOps?
Maybe someone brighter than I can explain his point to me - I thought DevOps was already the merger of developers and operations. It's kind of right there in the name.

Skimmed it pretty good... Yeah I think you're right and they're "ATM machining" it. I think one of my coworkers put it best with a Lion King meme. Anymore, the responsibility of developers is "everything the light touches". Personally I think the reason for that is you need a developer to understand everything that is going on and even at that you need one that somewhat approximates a hybrid network engineer. The shops where the infrastructure side of the house understands the ins/outs of the applications/APIs exist, but I'm thinking they are very likely the exception.
