// Abstract

Rob Hirschfeld, the CEO and co-founder of Rack N, discusses his extensive experience in the DevOps movement. He shares his notable achievement of coining the term "the cloud" and obtaining patents for infrastructure management and API provision. Rob highlights the stagnant progress in operations and the persistent challenges in security and access controls within the industry.
