DevOps and Continuous Delivery: Successful Adoption, 18 September 2014, Chicago

Published 10 Jun 2014

Adopting a new capability requires a plan that includes people, process, and technology. Although the name DevOps suggests development- and operations-based way of working, DevOps is an enterprise capability that includes stakeholders, business owners, architecture, design, development, quality assurance (QA), operations, security, partners, and suppliers. Excluding any stakeholder will lead to incomplete implementation of DevOps.

Changes need to be made, but it is difficult to go against the usual flow and investments too are also required. But before you consider adopting new technology and methods, consider the challenges within your organization that that needs addressing. The expert practitioners and thought leaders at this DevOps Summit will give help you to develop your business case and build the foundation towards getting significant return on investment.

Designing Software to enable DevOps and Continuous Delivery Practices
Wed, Aug 13, 2014 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM EDT

Background:
The Agile movement strives to shorten feedback cycle time for software development. Recent movements in Continuous Delivery and DevOps extend this focus to deployment and operations with a focus on getting quality software deployed to the end user more quickly and confidently. There is a lot of talk about streamlining the deployment pipeline focused on process analysis; however, we suggest design of the software to be deployed that can also be an enabler, or inhibitor, for achieving deployment goals. For example, poorly designed component dependencies may make it difficult to complete continuous integration builds within target threshold (e.g., 10 minute rule of thumb) or lack of interfaces in component design can limit ability to automate tests. In this webinar, we describe an approach for designing with deployability in mind. This is a topic which we will cover in greater depth in an upcoming pre-conference hands-on tutorial on September 17th in Chicago to be held with the DevOps Summit: DevOps & Continuous Delivery: Successful Adoption (18th September)
