For the introduction to the subject, the collection is great. Anyone who has a little already dealt with Operations, is very much familiar to rediscover (Getting Started with shell tools, Nagios and Graphite). My favorite of the collection is clearly John Allspaw with his "Outages Investigation 101", which raises the issue of "Operations" from the plane of the tools to a level of awareness of complex processes.

The video seems a bit inconsistent in terms of content (with two very theoretical sections vs three hands-on ones) and the skills required from the audience vary from section to section (e.g: those who understand the CLI tools used to generate data in the Graphite examples will already know about .bashrc). Leaving apart the second part of the "productivity tools" section, I think the content can be interesting for those who want to get exposed to these topics for the first time. Full Review  >
