Presentation I held @Codemotion Roundtable on Continuous Delivery & PaaS. How can you bring value at speed in an ever changing context? You have to concentrate on what is really valuable, remove waste from your processes and eliminate all your Technical Debt. Main principles you have to follow are: - Dev & test in production like environment - Deliver continuously, experiment continuously - Validate quality continuously - Collaborate and be open to feedback How can you do this without adopting a PaaS approach? Not impossibile but very hard.
