 In this episode of From Cover to Code, Angela and Michael continue their exploration of Hands-On Python for DevOps, diving into Chapters 7 and 8 — where Python meets automation and event-driven architecture.

They unpack what happens when Python steps into the world of automating DevOps workflows and connecting systems that respond in real time. From automating routine server maintenance to building loosely coupled systems, this conversation highlights both the potential and the pitfalls of using Python in large-scale automation.

Expect real stories, practical takeaways, and thoughtful reflection on the balance between innovation, governance, and simplicity in modern DevOps.

Book Chapters Covered:

🔹 Chapter 7 – Automating Tasks
🔹 Chapter 8 – Understanding Event-Driven Architecture

Video Chapters:

00:00 Welcome and Introduction
03:00 Automating Tasks with Python
10:05 Real-World Example: Automating Server Reboots
13:20 Server Maintenance and Patching with Boto
18:48 Containers, Kubernetes, and When Not to Automate
25:50 Google Forms, Apps Script, and AWS Lambda Automation
31:28 Understanding Event-Driven Architecture
38:20 Lessons from the Toyota Way and Lean Thinking
42:46 Loosely Coupled Systems and Queue-Based Design
44:10 Breaking Down the Monolith (Strangler Fig Pattern)
53:00 Legacy Modernization and Digital Transformation
54:24 Looking Ahead to CI/CD with Python

Key Discussion Highlights:
  • Automation for Humans: Michael shares a real-world story of automating nightly server reboots — freeing up time (and sleep) through scripting.
  • Python in DevOps: The hosts discuss patching automation with Python’s boto library, tagging AWS resources effectively, and the importance of maintainable code.
  • When Not to Automate: Angela and Michael debate whether using Python to build Docker images or Kubernetes clusters is genius or overkill.
  • Event-Driven Mindset: They break down event-driven architecture through Kafka, Pub/Sub, and the principle of loosely coupled systems.
  • From Monolith to Modern: The “Strangler Fig” approach and digital transformation are unpacked as metaphors for gradual modernization.
  • Practical Wisdom: The conversation ties DevOps principles with lean manufacturing and continuous improvement — “make it work, then make it pretty.”
