We are bringing back some of our favorite TEC37 episodes! In this TEC37 encore, we will discuss how we have noticed a demand in job postings looking for the mythical Unicorn; the person that automates everything, bleeds devops, and judges people by the stickers on their laptop.

Traditional IT operations can turn skilled people into robots who have to perform the same operationally-critical, yet time-consuming tasks over and over. All the while, it seems there is never time to work on the most strategic projects for your organization.

Infrastructure automation is your robot army, waiting for your orders! Adding automation to your IT operations skillset is absolutely doable, even though it might sound intimidating. Where do you start? What should you learn? What are the most important things to know? Host Robb Boyd and our expert panel will answer these questions and more, so you have the tools you need to make your automation robots come to life.
