When we talk about DevOps, there are (a minimum of, anyway) two topics that get at least passing mentions: feedback loops, and the concept that "DevOps isn't tools." However, the discussion of feedback loops rarely moves beyond the realm of the loop between dev, ops, and occasionally the end user / customer; and even though DevOps may not be just tools, tools can certainly be considered part of the supply chain that enables a team to, ahem, DevOps their way to delivering on their commitments.
But do we have healthy feedback loops with the creators of the software we depend upon — or even find value in such a relationship?
In this talk, Robyn Bergeron will share why choosing tools that are open source really matters — and what qualities one should look for, and encourage, in the open source communities that create the infastructure software your team or organization depends upon.
