What exactly is DevOps and what’s the learning roadmap.
In: 25
Ask ten people, and you’ll get at least fifteen definitions of what DevOps is. The only universal trait to all definitions is that involves somse sort of crossover between the Developer skill set and the IT Operations skillset. Some recurring ideas involve:
* No writing code then throwing it “over the fence” and letting operations worry about deploying to your servers. Developers should be involved in the day-to-day management and operation of their own software. This leads to things like reliability, monitoring, etc being baked directly into applications.
* Systems administration/operations was historically a largely manual process, with maintenance and configuration changes being performed by hand, but manual processes are slow, tedious, and error prone, and an all-around waste of precious engineering time. Instead, you use development skills to automate everything.

DevOps automates everything necessary to take your code in GitHub to production.
That means they automate CI/CD the build machine, the machines for all the environments, cloud infrastructure deployments if you do that, artifact versioning.

Since people are not explaining like you were five, I’ll make an attempt.
Imagine if your favorite pizza place could only prepare 1 pizza per day, struggling to even cooking it and delivering to the right person. That would suck right?
Fortunately, your favorite pizza place offers an ideal kitchen to enable the cooks so they can prepare the right pizza, cook them and package them nicely, with some spicy sauce as customers like you love them. And they will always bring the right pizza to the right person !
This kitchen has a nice set of tools and automation to fasten the delivery while still checking that the pizza don’t lose quality over time.
DevOps is to Code what this nice Kitchen is to Pizza: a set of tools and environment which enables the developers to deliver stable code, fast and automatically (& more!) to the users.

ELI5 for the first question: What’s DevOps. Imagine a Nascar race that never ends. The pit crew is DevOps. They didn’t build the car—engineers did, but they monitor the car and its performance every time around the track, and they tune it up, change tires, etc as needed, to keep it running smoothly.
ELI5 for the second question: What’s the learning roadmap? There’s a bunch of stuff you need to know so you list out of each of those things starting with the most basic, and then use that as a building block to get to the next topic(s), and then do the same for those, so forth and so on. Now you’ve got a roadmap for learning all of those things.
