The DevOps myth: Small teams don’t have to automate it all [NL] | WTFF S301 – Geert Hoffbauer

Can every DevOps team really automate everything? 🤔

In this episode, Kilian sits down with Geert Hofbouwen, CIO at Toerisme Vlaanderen, to talk about the realities of DevOps in small teams. Together, they explore why full automation isn’t always the smartest move — and how culture, communication and documentation often matter more than yet another script.

You’ll hear how Geert keeps a small IT team running smoothly, what “smart automation” actually looks like, and why stepping out of your comfort zone is key to continuous improvement.
