DevOps for New Projects
Udo Seidel, Manager of Linux Strategy and Server Automation at Amadeus, an IT service provider for the travel industry, sees this in a similar way: "DevOps is a paradigm shift that historically evolved data centers like Amadeus cannot easily undertake.

However, the goals that the system can help you achieve are so attractive that it is worthwhile for many companies to at least try a pilot project. The references mentioned in this article are designed to help you.
