It is fair play... for a development team. The Operations Engineers deal with a different class of problems.

How do you handle the overlap in your functions with those of other teams, e.g. the operational part of the deployment infrastructure (presumably owned by you, the Operations Team) vs the engineering part of it (presumably owned by the Continuous Deployment Infrastructure team)

You can check out their github repos https://github.com/etsy

Many (if not all) of these tools were born as internal modules.

Backing up and restoring any DB in a Continuous Delivery environment is extremely challenging, I haven't heard of anyone that has implemented a solid solution. It would be great if you (Avleen) can touch on this topic a little bit also.

If you step back and look at the different tools, wouldn't it be feasible to wire Chef, your command line tool, statsd and/or Nagios together to do some sort of homebrewed auto-scale tool?
