I found this line interesting, everything else considered:

DevOps is NOT…easily achieved nor implemented

Debatable, at least IMO. DevOps isn't easily achieved nor implemented if you're trying to implement ALL THE THINGS to say you did and check-off a series of "We did DevOps thing x" boxes as so many companies appear to want-at least from reading various DevOps-y job descriptions lately.

It is easier implemented if, like Gene Kim tells us in "The DevOps Handbook"-we start our DevOps transformations with a small, sympathetic team and iterate outward.
