Counterpoint: most orgs fail to empower or value or fund their DevOps roles enough to see the value beyond subsistence. Absence of a correlation often means "it's more complicated than that", and that the value arrives when you manage for the long term.

Yeah, I think DevOps can provide huge value. I just have also observed that many seem to spend all this time "rolling their own" ops only to end up with something more complex and less reliable than what they could get off the shelf from any number of cloud providers.

Larger orgs can more easily gain from this, I think. But I hear of all these engineers from smaller orgs manually managing a bunch of server instances instead of relying on higher-level PaaS abstractions that would save them a small fortune in time and money.
