Who do you think pulls all that data together? DevOps/Sysadmins.

I build and wrap together the tools that make your job easier. And I take pride in that. I'm also on call so you don't have to be.

That's what I was trying to point out. A devops engineer is involved in the creation of these systems, however she does not need to be involved at 3am when the problem is discovered, since Adam can identify his own problem and can verify his fix did what was necessary.

Ouch, my mistake. In that case, I misread your post, and I apologize.
