3. What is DevOps?
DevOps is
..for practitioners, by practitioners.
..a knowledge-based movement.
..decentralized and open for everyone.
..not an product or job title.

4. But why?
• Is DevOps a hype?
• Does DevOps even exist?
• Should we simply do something because everyone else is talking
about it?
DevOps Heaven
Let’s step back and see how we reached here..

5. Waterfall Model
But this Traditional Process:
50%
done?
Not this

6. Please note…
It is a model about
real people working
to build software

7. Disconnected and in phases
1. Pre-sales
2. Business Analysts
3. Technical Architects
4. Coders
5. Testers
6. Operations

8. Working in Silos
BA Design Code Test Operations

9. Agile to the rescue!!

10. Applying Lean Principles to Software Development
A better way of doing the same
End-to-End small
slices of work
20% done = 100% usable
Agile

and early testing

Lesson learnt:
Don’t misunderstand user requirements. Write tests first and involve testers in Story Grooming
session and own Acceptance Criteria

22. DevOps Delivery Pipeline
Lesson learnt:
People don’t want DevOps done TO them, they want DevOps done WITH them.
