Duplication, Not Consolidation: The Path Forward for AppsCategory: Security, Kubernetes, Infrastructure, firewall
The bold vision was that everyone would be on the same single “God platform” with one management plane, one data plane and one easy point of reference.
Everyone would be on the same page, using the same metrics and speaking the same language.
The cascading effect of consolidation has also forced DevOps, SecOps and NetOps to choose between different beloved sets of tools for observation and management, different principles about security and different expectations for application behavior. For example, for NetOps average packets dropped is a critical KPI, while for DevOps it’s borderline irrelevant to understanding user experience.
Because the metrics that matter are so different for the two teams, NetOps and DevOps need to each pick their own analytics stack.
