First time I'm hearing the "DevOps infinity logo", it seems that everything uses a variation of this: Meta, VS Code...
Infinity is the new hexagon.
Gitlab New Logo: DevOps Is at the Center of Gitlab

#72I like that it feels more organic (?) and friendly but still recognizable because it is close enough to the previous one.
Friendly ... for me the new logo has anger in it. The old one was without emotion.

I work at GitLab, but curious what your use case is for just VCS ? I assume your company has other solutions for the software lifecycle that you are happy with? Depending on the size of your org, If it's small GitLab CE is free and can readily handle VCS no problem, you won't have a support contract though.
I am in charge of reporting, business intelligence and DE. We use VCS to have all our SQL transformations stored there. Like that all the business users interested can see whats happening in background and we have things version controlled. For rest of the features we don't have use case and our "proper IT" is using github instead, but there you have to pay per seat in org. as I heard
If the business users never need to write, just read, then you could set the projects to public (if your instance is in a private network) and then people can have vis, and you don't need seats for those who aren't writing. I think both products support this as an option.

What's the distinction between DevOps and CI/CD? I thought CI/CD is DevOps.
DevOps is a methodology.
I think you're mistaken. DevOps is a very specific team allowed to touch the Jenkins box, and is the old branding for what is now SRE which are both just rebranded names for Systems Administration, but with Cloud certifications instead of Cisco and Dell.
I kid. But this is just as much the meme I've encountered as Agile. Some successful company releases a book about something they do that's fundamentally different, and almost instantly enterprises across the globe have a department for that thing with that name. Progress.

Well, I was trying to clarify this statement from OP: > DevOps become center part of Gitlab which we don’t use and need any of those feature. We all need a code storage, code review, issue tracking and the CI/CD. It reads to me like this: "We don't use DevOps features in Gitlab, but we use CI/CD pipelines in Gitlab". So it is contradicting. As they responded, CI/CD is a subset of DevOps methodology. I've used Gitlab…
DevOps is whole set of tools. Gitlab includes features like monitoring, code scanning, Kubernetes integration, docker registry, cloud security and protections. And those are $1188 per year per person. By CI/CD I mean good old Jenkins that runs on a computer in the office that builds iOS Apps and uploads them to Apple AppStore (of course current generation of CI/CD is much better). Gitlab CI/CD and runners were there…
Ah got it, thanks. I wasn’t aware that they’ve built all this stuff.

SRE jokingly stands for "SysAdmin, Really Expensive"

#78Before I clicked I already knew it would incorporate the horizontal lemniscate... that seems to have become synonymous with devops. I'm extremely tired of that symbol at this point, I mean there's 4 of those images when I google for "devops" and nothing else: https://i.imgur.com/pr9d8KH.png
If the horizontal lemniscate is synonymous with DevOps that's exactly what I would expect when searching for "devops". Do you think it's a bad representation of what DevOps is? Otherwise I don't understand what you're tired of.

I thought the OP was maybe referring to Gitlab's "AutoDevOps" features which were introduced a few years ago. From their site:
>"GitLab Auto DevOps is a collection of pre-configured features and integrations that work together to support your software delivery process."
I remember upgrading a Gitlab instance at that time and ended up with an issue that was the result of the AutoDevOps feature set. It seemed that AutoDevops was turned on by default. My issue was easy to resolve but I remember thinking at the time it was rather opinionated.

I think that you can apply the lemniscate to basically anything.
Feels lazy to keep reciting it as if it’s novel or unique.
