Proposal: Nominate Your Best Devops Tools #45

Open robmoffat opened 2 years ago

robmoffat commented 2 years ago

@mcleo-d asked me to raise the proposal I brought up at the last meeting as a GitHub issue so we could discuss further.

TLDR

Basically the proposal is: can we pull together a list of (ideally OSS) tools that we recommend for DevOps? I suggest we start off by writing our own top 5 (or so) in the comments below, and then maybe we can hash out what is common.

More Detailed Reasoning

The idea of DevOps Mutualization (it seems to me) is to gain value from building DevOps tooling together. Therefore, it seems sensible to share (as far as possible) what tools we are already using. That is - not just trying to build new tools/extensions together, but trying to provide leadership / advice over what existing tools should be used in the first place.

I did a brief search on GItHub to see if anyone else had "colonised" this space, and it seems like not. Take a look at the DevOps topic on GitHub:

https://github.com/topics/devops

The top project on there with 62k stars is somewhat related to DevOps... but not too much. It's this one: https://github.com/trimstray/the-book-of-secret-knowledge

I think we could make DevOps Mutualization quite a popular repo if it covered:

Anyway, I'd love to know what you all think about this. I am new to all of this, and I find the best way to learn is to be wrong a lot. So please tell me if that's the case!
