adaptation of Scrum to a R&D company, and it will explain why the Scrum and Agile Philosophy adoption turned out to be a break‐even point in our company.
What Is Platform as a Product - Clues from Team Topologies @ AXA, Sep 2021Manuel Pais
Savvy organisations are discovering the value of treating their internal platforms as products. But what does it mean to treat a “platform as a product”? What benefits does this give, and why would an organisation adopt this approach?
In this talk, Manuel Pais, co-author of the book Team Topologies, explains why the platform-as-product approach can be a game-changer for organisations building and running software-enabled products and services. Using ideas & patterns from Team Topologies - including Thinnest Viable Platform, team cognitive load, and the evolutionary team interaction modes - Manuel explains how organisations like Uswitch have successfully used the platform-as-product model to accelerate and simplify the delivery of software at scale.

The Six Stages of Digital Transformation by Brian SolisBrian Solis
For companies faced with the prospect of “Digital Darwinism,” the hardest part is evaluating what need to be changed first. In Brian Solis' deepest dive into Digital Transformation yet, he created a maturity model that helps companies assess exactly where they are, and where they need to be on the road to digital transformation.
After several years of interviewing those helping to drive digital transformation, we have identified a series of patterns, components, and processes that form a strong foundation for change. We have organized these elements into six distinct stages:
Business as Usual
Present and Active
Formalized
Strategic
Converged
Innovative and Adaptive

Value stream management is essential for dev ops v4DevOps.com
Join us for a live webinar on December 13th to learn why you can’t have effective DevOps without Value Stream Management.
While DevOps provides capabilities that improve a business value stream through the implementation of culture, toolchains, orchestration and automation, DevOps alone without Value Stream Management is not sufficient to realize business benefits.
Don’t spend the time and money on DevOps alone and NOT get to reap the rewards for the business!
Attend this webinar to hear Marc Hornbeek of Trace3, and Jeff Keyes of Plutora discuss how you can leverage all of the data from your DevOps tools chains to provide real-time analytics, and codify policies that must be orchestrated to realize benefits of a business value stream.
CI/CD Best Practices for Your DevOps JourneyDevOps.com
The journey to realizing DevOps in any organization is fraught with a number of obstacles for developers and other stakeholders. These challenges are often caused by key CI/CD practices being misunderstood, partially implemented or even completely skipped. Now, as the industry positions itself to build on DevOps practices with a Software Delivery Management strategy, it’s more important than ever that we implement CI/CD best practices, and prepare for the future.
Join host Mitchell Ashely, and CloudBees’ Brian Dawson, DevOps evangelist, and Doug Tidwell, technical marketing director, as they explore and review the CI/CD best practices which serve as your stepping stones to DevOps and a successful Software Delivery Management strategy.
The webinar will cover CI/CD best practices including:
Containers and environment management
Continuous delivery or deployment
Movement from Dev to Ops
By the end of the webinar, you’ll understand the key steps for implementing CI/CD and powering your journey to DevOps and beyond.
7 Ways to Lead Digital Transformation Without Being an IT SpecialistVistage UK
SMEs should be embracing the digital transformation to grow their businesses. This slideshare shows how non-IT business leaders can use strategic thinking and leadership excellence to drive innovation and change.
In 2009 Patrick Dubois coined the term "DevOps" when he organised the first "DevOpsDays" In Ghent, Belgium. Since then the term has become a term to explain the collaboration between all organisational stakeholders in IT projects (developers, operations, QA, marketing, security, legal, …) to deliver high quality, reliable solutions where issues are tackled early on in the value stream.
But reality shows that many businesses that implement "DevOps" are actually talking about a collaboration between development, QA and operations (DQO). Solutions are being provided but lack the security and/or legal regulations causing hard-to-fix problems in production environments.
In this talk I will explain how the original idea of Patrick to include all stakeholders got reduced to development, QA and operations and why it's so difficult to apply security or compliance improvements in this model. I will also talk about ways to make the DQO model welcoming for security experts and legal teams and why "DevSecOps" is now the term to be used to ensure security is no longer omitted from the value process.
Finally we'll have a vote if we keep the term "DevOps" as an all-inclusive representation for all stakeholders or if we need to start using "DevSecOps" to ensure the business understands can no longer ignore the importance of security.
DevOps is the next buzz word that all organization have to apply. This presentation will show you overview of all DevOps Technology you need to learn to transform your organization to DevOps organization.

Beyond the Spotify model - Team Topologies - DevTestNorth - 2019-09-25 - Matt...Matthew Skelton
Key takeaways:
Why using the “Spotify Model” of team design is not enough
The four fundamental team topologies needed for modern software delivery
The three team interaction modes that enable fast flow and rapid learning
How to address Conway’s Law, cognitive load, and team evolution with Team Topologies
For effective, modern, cloud-connected software systems we need to organize our teams in certain ways. Taking account of Conway’s Law, we look to match the team structures to the required software architecture, enabling or restricting communication and collaboration for the best outcomes.
This talk will cover the basics of organization design using Team Topologies, exploring a selection of key team types and how and when to use them in order to make the development and operation of your software systems as effective as possible. The talk is based on the forthcoming 2019 book Team Topologies and first-hand experience helping companies around the world with the design of their technology teams.
About Team Topologies
Team Topologies is a clear, easy-to-follow approach to modern software delivery with an emphasis on optimizing team interactions for flow. Four fundamental types of team – team topologies – and three core team interaction modes combine with awareness of Conway’s Law, team cognitive load, and responsive organization evolution to define a no-nonsense, team-friendly, humanistic approach to building and running software systems.
Devised by experienced IT consultants Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais, the Team Topologies approach is informed by the well-known DevOps Team Topologies patterns (also authored and curated by Matthew and Manuel). Matthew and Manuel have worked with many organizations around the world to help them shape their teams for modern software delivery, and Team Topologies is the result of that experience.

Team Topologies in action - early results from industry - DOES London Virtual...Matthew Skelton
A talk given at DevOps Enterprise Summit Virtual 2020
---
Since the book Team Topologies was published in 2019, organizations around the world have started to adopt Team Topologies principles and practices like Stream-aligned teams, modern platforms, well-defined team interactions, and team cognitive load as a key driver for fast software delivery and operations.
We will look at examples from these organizations:
* Gjensidige Insurance, a leading Nordic insurance company with 4000 employees and business in the Nordic and Baltic countries, uses the four fundamental team types to clarify team responsibilities and interactions and is moving towards several “thinnest viable platforms” with Stream-aligned teams as internal customers
* PureGym is Britain’s largest gym chain - the first to gain over 1 million members. As PureGym expanded, so did the need for software to enable their members to book and manage gym sessions. Since 2019, PureGym has re-aligned its teams and team interactions based on Team Topologies patterns, helping to scale the engineering teams and improve flow.
* uSwitch / RVU, one of the UK’s leading consumer price comparison websites, has grown a modern platform from scratch, allowing stream-aligned teams to focus on consumers needs, offloading infrastructure provisioning concerns to the platform which also provides cross-cutting services around scalability, security and data management
* Visma is one of the leading software development companies in Europe with nearly 1 million customers in 21 countries. Team Topologies has helped to define and accelerate a transformation begun in 2015 to improve service ownership and speed of changes.
* Wealth Wizards is a UK company making financial advice affordable and accessible to everyone through online tools and apps. The engineering division at Wealth Wizards has used the Team Topologies ideas around team cognitive load to help right-size their teams and align teams to the most important flows of business change.
For each of these examples, we explore how the ideas and patterns in Team Topologies were useful to the organization and the results of the changes.
aka "Agile adoption stories from highly varied organisational cultures"
Why is the culture change that genuine Agile requires so difficult in most army or machine-like corporate cultures, yet quite natural for certain organisations who have a culture similar to a family or living organism? It turns out that the type of Agile your organisation adopts corresponds with its dominant world view or stage of consciousness. Drawing from 15 years of experience with Agile in Australia and the UK, we describe how Agile was interpreted quite differently by organisations classed as Amber, Orange, Green and Teal in Frederic LaLoux’s model.
Familiarise yourself with the characteristics of the four stages of Frederic LaLoux’s consciousness model.
You will become aware of:
* The stage that your own organisation is at
* How your organisation is likely to interpret and ‘bend’ Agile to fit its world view
* Specific beliefs and motivations that make high agility difficult in organisations with Amber and Orange stages of consciousness
* The Green and Teal beliefs and leadership styles that are genuinely transformational in achieving and sustaining high agility and customer-centric Agile adoptions.
What a Platform is? Which is the role of Engineers? How to improve time-to-market and reduce total cost of ownership moving from project to product mindset?
Those are just of some questions that Platform Engineers are answering everyday. This is a draft presentation of my next presentation about Platforms and Software Engineering.

Drawing from 15 years of experience with Agile in Australia and the UK, we describe how Agile was interpreted quite differently by organisations classed as Amber, Orange, Green and Teal in Frederic LaLoux’s model.
Familiarise yourself with the characteristics of the four stages of Frederic LaLoux’s consciousness model.
You will become aware of:
* The stage that your own organisation is at
* How your organisation is likely to interpret and ‘bend’ Agile to fit its world view
* Specific beliefs and motivations that make high agility difficult in organisations with Amber and Orange stages of consciousness
* The Green and Teal beliefs and leadership styles that are genuinely transformational in achieving and sustaining high agility and customer-centric Agile adoptions.
What a Platform is? Which is the role of Engineers? How to improve time-to-market and reduce total cost of ownership moving from project to product mindset?
Those are just of some questions that Platform Engineers are answering everyday. This is a draft presentation of my next presentation about Platforms and Software Engineering.
Diseñando nuestra estrategia de Transformación Agile con enfoque participativ...Gemma Hornos Cirera
Cuando en una organización deseamos emprender esta gran aventura, ¿por dónde empezamos?, ¿hay recomendaciones a seguir? ¿cuál es la letra pequeña del prospecto?
Durante esta charla se compartirá un modelo para diseñar una estrategia de Transformación Agile y se abordarán estas preguntas. El modelo sigue un proceso altamente participativo con enfoque sistémico contando con las cuatro fases de: recogida de la información, análisis, diseño de la nueva organización y puesta en marcha.

¿A quién no le gusta ver personas con caras felices en su empresa? ¿A quién no le gusta que esas sonrisas se difundan por la red?
El Marketing de sonrisas ha hecho mucho daño al concepto de “Felicidad laboral” y a su abordaje serio desde el área de cultura de la empresa.Tenemos empresas con futbolines cuyos trabajadores entran a las 09:00 y salen a las 19:00 como norma, empresas donde la felicidad se correlaciona con la juventud, empresas donde preocuparse por los derechos laborales se visualiza demodé, como poco.
Somos empresas ágiles en donde su primer principio dice “Personas por encima de procesos” y lo más frecuente es que si hablas de felicidad laboral te llame el Community Manager para escribir en un blog en vez de que te llame el CEO de la empresa para instaurar políticas y acciones al respecto.
La foto para las redes prima y las políticas en favor del trabajador vienen impuestas bajo una supuesta alineación a valores que sólo cumple una de las partes del binomio empresa-trabajador.
El objetivo de esta charla es el de hacer un hueco y propiciar un cambio de paradigma en el tratamiento de la “Felicidad laboral” en la empresa.
La estructura de esta charla abordará tres bloques de contenido:
Toma de conciencia:
Formalidad de la Felicidad Laboral
Agentes implicados
Marco de actuación propuesto:
Foco abajo-arriba
Ética laboral
Introducción a herramientas:
Motivación laboral
Work life balance
Cuando consigues de verdad un entorno laboral en armonía con quienes lo componen podrás ir donde quieras a “vender la moto” de equipos motivados con datos y no sólo con fotos.
These slides talk about how we have evolved the way to work with the Product Roadmap in regards to the internal and external changes that made lastminute.com group keep growing.
Llevamos años tratando de introducir Agile en nuestras organizaciones, pero siempre nos encontramos con los mismos frenos. Uno de los más importantes es el no apoyo de management.
¿No es posible que no estén viendo el valor? ¿Realmente están alineados nuestros objetivos ágiles con los del negocio?
La transformación de la Customer Experience es un caballo de Troya para el éxito de la adopción de una cultura ágil. Es vestir Agile con un por qué, con un para qué, en lenguaje de negocio y de satisfacción de cliente.
Una de las herramientas más poderosas para la mejora continua personal y de equipo es recibir y ser capaces de dar un buen feedback. El feedback ha de ser continuo, directo y lo más objetivo posible. El feedback mejora la comunicación, construye confianza y ayuda a los compañeros a colaborar con más eficiencia, acelerando la resolución de los problemas. Dar y recibir feedback son dos habilidades muy complejas, que es necesario aprender y prácticar. En esta charla, quiero mostraros la importancia de un feedback de calidad, cómo podéis entrenarlo y os enseñaré algunas de las herramientas y técnicas que utilizo día a día para eso.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
