There is no “Ops” team or “support” team in the fundamental topologies, and this is deliberate. The long-lived teams building the systems are very close to the live operation of the systems they are building. There is no “handover” to a separate Ops or support team; even with the SRE pattern (see Chapter 4), the teams are closely aligned. Stream-aligned teams follow good software-delivery practices (like continuous delivery and operability), and they are responsible for live operation, even if very little code is being written.
