Excellent introduction and expression of what DevOps is AND isn't. I liked the scenarios presented and the instructor's experience came through in expressing the benefits and real life difficulties in actually creating an effective DevOps culture in established companies.

I already had some basic knowledge of DevOps and I thought that this introductory course could be boring. On the contrary, it allowed me to fully connect my sparse dots, to consolidate a precise and coherent image of the field, and to embrace its culture. Well done John!

Very educational course and im impressed with how many times I said, man that happened to me when seeing what other types of reward structures there are. It made me realize I value being a social coder and it's detrimental to me when I have anti-patterns to that.

Flips the ideas that started the industrial revolution on it's head. This course provides new ideas that aligns team members with the goals of your business and its domains to create a culture of collaboration, experimentation, and personal responsibility.

Very interesting notions, well explained, useful and necessarily applicable in the workplace. It gave me the idea of what it means to approach the DevOps culture, how to unhinge the old approach and work on an automated and quickly deployable architecture.

Excellent pace of content and easy to understand. Highly valuable, especially to someone who has at least some experience with DevOps and Lean principles.

Volume of content was appropriate. Didn't feel like I was scrambling to take notes each slide.

Excellent course. Not only did it not feel repetitive or "dry" but I was constantly feeling the urge to continue through it. John Rofrano's pace and radiating passion for the subject, kept me engaged and focused on every step of this course!

The course is structured in such a way that makes it easy to follow along. The material is broken down to make it easy to grasp concepts at an introductory level. I found this very useful, especially being a newbie to the course and field.

Great Introduction to DevOps. I started this course because I am/was about to become a DevOps Engineer and found out, later in the course, that DevOps is a Culture, behavior, and practice neither a tool nor a job title. Highly recommended

I loved the instructor's enthusiasm and the examples given throughout the course. It has built a solid foundation for DevOps's theoretical aspects, including its importance and how it can be implemented in organizations.

A very good course, introducing the domain of DevOps. Some quiz questions are a little bit useless - I mean, you'll probably forget the people-icons of DevOps and the books they wrote, unless get a closer look to them.

I love this one as I learned how we can change the way of our company's working environment and way we do our work. As we can collaborate with other teams to get things done in a more convenient and productive way.

A very good intro to DevOps with a lot of enthusiasm from the lecturer, but I strongly believe that you need to have a background in development and operations. You can't just start this course with no background!

This is a great course as a starting point to get to know what DevOps is, and what it is not. It requires no technical knowledge so as a general understanding this is a very good quality first checkpoint.
