DevOps succeeds when teams can focus on collaboration, monitoring, and continuous improvement rather than wrestling with YAML syntax and infrastructure boilerplate. This talk demonstrates how Claude Code can eliminate manual toil in setting up CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and monitoring configurations - freeing teams to concentrate on the strategic DevOps work that actually moves the needle.

We'll live-code a complete DevOps pipeline using Claude Code, Terraform modules for AWS infrastructure, GitHub Actions for deployment automation, and monitoring setup with proper alerting. More importantly, we'll discuss what Claude Code can't do - the cultural shifts, incident response planning, and architectural decisions that define successful DevOps transformations.

You'll leave with practical examples of where AI coding assistants shine in DevOps workflows, and clarity on where human expertise remains irreplaceable.
