Devops is a buzzword. Before we had all kinds of fancy automation tools, we used sed, awk, grep, bash and expect scripts. You shouldn't have to train a sys admin to be a devops engineer. If a sys admin knows their shit, develops is the natural progression. IMHO, the kids who are sysadmins and too young to know life before ports/apt/yum, need a week of compiling it from source training. Isn't devops sysadmin+python?
