DevOps is a state of mind, process, or practice. It is not about a specific tool or set of tools. Event driven architecture with loose coupling makes efficient use of cloud resources from a scaling and cost perspective. An idempotent design and automated testing is critical to the safe operation of cloud platforms. Transparency is key for building trust in people, tools, and processes.
