Last month I went to the UK PHP Conference where Jeremy Quinton spoke about DevOps. The biggest take-away I got was:

'Do not set out to create a DevOps team or employ people for that role'

My interpretation was the role simply doesn't exist. If your company has a team of developers and a team of people who keep the wheels turning - in an ideal world you already have a DevOps team as long as they collaborate. If you also employ smart people you will get 'developers that know how to do sysadmn' and 'sysadmins that know how to develop' - definitely this indeed should be embraced but not expected.
