Werner Vogels has a recent blog post [1] entitled "Modern Applications at AWS" where he says "To succeed in using application development to increase agility and innovation speed, organizations must adopt five elements, in any order: microservices; purpose-built databases; automated software release pipelines; a serverless operational model; and automated, continuous security."

I see the devops role at large cos evolving into dev-sec-ops for the "automated, continuous security" tooling and processes. (Besides the usual tooling for delivering and supporting a reliable network service, cloud engineering, system-level issue resolution in dev and test, load and performance and containerized test automation in the pipelines, failover fire-drills, etc.)
