Enterprise DevOps
The Opportunity & The Challenge
Benjamin Wootton
@benjaminwootton
2.
The Premise Of DevOps:
That better development and operations collaboration
leads to more effective software delivery
3.
Therefore, Development and Operations should:
Communicate and collaborate more effectively
Be incentivized by the same goals
Adopt best practice from one another
Manage configuration and infrastructure with development like techniques
Develop software with operability in mind
Prefer automation to manual work
4.
The Benefits Are Significant:
Faster time to market
Increased quality
More delivery focus
Increased efficiencies
Agility and iterative delivery
Shorter release cycles and continuous delivery
Lean innovation
5.
DevOps Is Particularly Relevant In The Enterprise
Enterprise ‘feels the pain’ due to being larger and more siloed
and needing to retain control
Having more ‘legacy’ in terms of technology and established
process and culture
Conducting more business and needing to maintain stability
whilst iterative and innovating
6.
However, Enterprise Must Adopt DevOps Like Practices To Survive &
Thrive
Every business is becoming a software business
Markets are increasingly won or lost on software delivery
Business must iterate faster and innovate in a leaner style
We need DevOps like automation to deliver technology at enterprise scale
