DevOps more than anything else made Amazon a success. And made its founder, Jeff Bezos, the richest man on earth. He purchased The Washington Post in 2013 for US$250 million in cash.
Before he took over, Development was managed seperatly from Operations in all Computer Companies, and this was popular with Developers because they could just develop a product to their satisfaction through it over the wall and let Operations maintain it (a much harder job).
He cracked heads together and told his employees, if they wanted a job, they would do things his way. He was credited with saying "You got to eat your own dog food!"
