Facebook, Netflix, Flickr, Etsy, LinkedIn, eSurance, Instagram and Salesforce.com; you know their names. As a consumer, you’ve probably used services provided by many of them. These are some of the “born on the web” companies of the last couple of decades that have helped pioneer new, web-based business models - and in the process become dominant players in their markets, or created new markets altogether. Call them the “Cool Kids”.
What you may not know, however, is that these companies are also strong adopters of a DevOps approach when it comes to software development and delivery. In this presentation we take a look at these companies to discern patterns related to how they have applied DevOps in the areas of Culture, Organization, Practices, Automation and Measurements.
Even if your company bears no resemblance at all to the Cool Kids, you can take away some important learnings from them as you look to apply DevOps to your own software initiatives.

Leveraging Lean for IT and research transformation by Jeromy MarkwortInstitut Lean France
In 2012, the IT division of a U.S. national research and development laboratory with over 4,500 staff began their Lean IT journey. After working with Mike Orzen, a pioneer in Lean IT, the organization is learning to embrace small incremental change, trial and discovery, and value the answer to the question "what did we learn?" There is an metaphor that says, "the best way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time," but our tendency is to bite off more than we can chew often leading to failed deployments, partially or improperly built solutions or unfunded grandiose multi-year projects. Jeromy Markwort, Lean IT coach at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory presents what the IT organization has learned so far on their Lean journey.

Service Desk – VOC: the heart of Lean in IT using Oobeya to lead change by Da...Institut Lean France
How did a Service Desk help lead the change of culture and improvement within a financial services organisation? The problem: IT management had changed from a service to project culture so CREATE side did not talk to the run side until too late. So the Service Desk was repeatedly solving things, performing unneeded tasks, had poor KPIs and tools, and higher costs. One year later and we were the Face-of-IT with measurable days saved in tasks, 80% satisfaction improvement, accelerated request fulfilment, happier staff and gave more budget to enable cloud development and infrastructure projects. We created a place of work and communication: an Oobeya and used Lean to guide improved service based on our ITIL tools and processes. A session presented by Daniel Breston at the Lean IT Summit 2013.

Lean and ITIL: reaching to the (hidden) face of the moon by Nicolas Stampf, BP2iInstitut Lean France
ITILv2 certifies people, not organizations. Yet it’s a library of good practices that organizations are supposed to follow. So, with predefined processes as a North Star to reach for, it’s very attractive to wanting to use Lean to improve them. Yet, when you first grasp the situation, you soon discover that the shiny, fixed, paper Moon map is nowhere to be found in reality. The further you look, the more you understand that there’s something else to that...
At the Lean IT Summit 2013, Nicolas Stampf reported the story of an adventurous exploration of the hidden side of the moon...

Comparing Various SDLC Models On The Basis Of Available MethodologyIJMER
There are various SDLC models widely accepted and employed for developing software.
SDLC models give a theoretical guide line regarding development of the software. Employing proper
SDLC allows the managers to regulate whole development strategy of the software. Each SDLC has its
advantages and disadvantages making it suitable for use under specific condition and constraints for
specified type of software only. We need to understand which SDLC would generate most successful
result when employed for software development. For this we need some method to compare SDLC
models. Various methods have been suggested which allows comparing SDLC models. Comparing SLDC
models is a complex task as there is no mathematical theorem or physical device available. The essence
of this paper is to analyse some methodologies that could result in successful comparison of the SDLC
models. For this we have studied various available tools, techniques and methodologies and have tried
to extract most simple, easy and highly understandable method for comparing SDLC models.
For a beginner, this is a good quality pictorial representation of DevOps and DevOps Center of Excellence.

Why kanban is the secret to scale your tech team by Marc-Antoine Lacroix QontoInstitut Lean France
Marc-Antoine is CTO at Qonto, the French leading B2B neobank. His role there is to scale the tech team (currently over 60 engineers) while maintaining a high level of code quality and shipping high-value features efficiently. This is where the Lean practice comes in handy.
After years of Scrum and agile methodologies practices, Marc-Antoine bumped into the TPS that he has tried to implement in the IT world for more than 5 years – sometimes as a CTO, sometimes as a Lean coach.
At the Lean Digital Summit 2019, he shared what he discovered during this journey!

This talk by Cecil Dijoux, author of #Hyperlean, is about answering the questions managers ask themselves every day to thrive in the digital era. How to daily manage the activity so that customer experience remains at the very heart of the team concern? How to foster the right context to encourage experimentation and the development of the team agility? How to adopt the right posture to engage every one, every day in the thinking, building, checking, learning loop so that each team member can see her or his contribution to the company operational improvement and financial growth as she learns new things about her own work?

Today digital transformations push IT organizations to develop new products and services faster while they must keep maintaining their legacy systems. Because of the increase of new assets, new technologies, new customers, the number of incidents grows dramatically. The impact is huge on both customers and companies. It forces CIOs to put more budget on RUN to the detriment of CHANGE to keep the situation under control. The good news is that it is possible to get out of this critical situation.
Through a concrete story, within the banking sector, Pierre Jannez, Lean IT coach with Operae Partners, explained how a team leader and his 7 teammates have put the situation back on track by removing all incidents of a critical application in 6 months ; how they multiplied per 3 their productivity using the two pillars of the Toyota Production System, Just In Time & Jidoka, to deliver corrections faster, with the best level of quality ever, and eventually how they progressively moved from a reparation work.

Bas Vodde is the creator of LeSS, a lightweight (agile) framework for scaling Scrum to more than one team.
Toyota Production System and Lean Thinking have been an essential influence to LeSS. Lean Thinking is one of the ten LeSS principles. In this talk, he zoomed in a little on how and why Lean Thinking influenced LeSS and how similar thinking can help your development independent of ‘scaling framework’.
LeSS is different with other scaling frameworks in the sense that it provides a very minimalistic framework that enables empiricism on a large-scale which enables the teams and organization to inspect-adapt their implementation based on their experiences and context. LeSS is based on the idea that providing too much rules, roles, artifacts and asking the organization to tailor it down is a fundamentally flawed approach and instead scaling frameworks should be minimalistic and allowing organizations to fill them in.

Have your improvements plateaued? Are Scrum Masters acting more like facilitators than active improvement drivers? Are your improvement efforts grounded in reactive problem solving and good intentions but failing to deliver true and measurable results? These questions indicate that there is a “missing link” between the improvement culture that so many Agilists want but rarely find they can execute. This presentation captures the last six years of experience working with Toyota Kata in an Agile setting, helping teams, departments, business units and organizations learn how to set ambitious and measurable improvement goals and work iteratively toward them.

For Alistair Cockburn, Agile has become overly decorated. Let’s scrape away those decorations for a minute, and get back to the center. The Heart of Agile is a fresh look at Agile that strips away a lot of the noise that has built up over recent years. It contains just four imperatives: Collaborate, Deliver, Reflect, Improve. With these four words, we can both improve the effectiveness of any organization and also find new and interesting topics that are not in the common agile literature.

Lean and agile software because or despite rising complexity by Yves CaseauInstitut Lean France
At the Lean Digital Summit 2019, Yves Caseau, Group CIO of Michelin talked about software factories and how to leverage lean and agile practices to cope with uncertainty and complexity. It turns out that rising complexity is also making the mindset change to « agile laissez-faire » more difficult. He explained how Lean roots help to anchor the continuous learning and software craftsmanship ambition into corporate governance for large organizations.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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:
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...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.

“the property of having many abilities”, that is software that can serve many purposes, together with “the
capacity of adaptive evolution”
Openness
expose API, open source (scrutiny), platform
Specific to GW/STB products:
HW/SW interface : HW changes frequently + instable (protocols)
Embedded Linux
Legacy Assets (older “boxes”)
Our « modular middleware » ambition:
TTM / Lifecycle control

- smaller pieces for faster adjustment
- Common rhythms to stay synchronized
Most dramatic change in our Taylorinspired large-scale organizations
Oldest, most durable problem

13. LSF Practices (1) – Team Problem Solving
Part II: LSF Practices
2
Cf. ITIL : problem ≠ incident
1.
Search for root causes, using
the « Five Whys » approach
team work with all stakeholders
3.
Build a collective action plan
detailed: what will be done, by who, how and why …
4.
Regular check of the plan application and its
consequences
need for discipline & perseverance
5.
Why ?
Visual description of the problem
a drawing is worth a thousands words
2.
LSF start:
May 2012
Since we work on systems, with long causal
chaines and feedback loops.
Since we need to fix causes and not symptoms …
To avoid repeating the same mistakes
All viewpoints are required to find the best
solutions
Buy-in and empowerment from all
Most often the problem vanishes or evolves by
itself since environment conditions have changed
Trace those four steps: A3-like document
Yves CASEAU – October 2013 – Lean Software Factory

14. LSF Practices (2) – Project Room
Part II: LSF Practices
2
1.
Visualize planning and milestones
Rite: Sprint Planning Meeting
2.
LSF start:
May 2012
Why ?
To stay synchronized,
to avoid waiting
Visualize « workflow » (WBS)
see the process and the succession of steps
•
Multi-scale if needed
3.
Visualize « issues »
•
•
Display the problem-related A3
List of most important incidents « GdM »
Understand « the big picture » and
facilitate transitions
All viewpoints are required to find the best
solutions
Buy-in and empowerment from all
A place for collective memory, hence reflection
4.

Yves CASEAU – October 2013 – Lean Software Factory
Learning and
continuous
improvement
14/24
15. Part II: LSF Practices
2
LSF start:
May 2012
LSF Practices (3) – Reduce WIP
1.
Visualize all tasks assigned to teams
i.e.: to place post-its into cells
2.
Reduce WIP (Work in Process)
Add constraints to the work load
•
No more than X post-its per cell
3.
JIT management (Pull flows)
•
•
Avoir overload, multi-tasking and stockpiling
« work waiting to be handled »
In an ideal project setting, with an optimal scheduling,
there is no difference between push & pull
« push » happens when the end of step N activity signals
the beginning of step N+1 activity (most often with some
delay compared to the optimal schedule)
The more optimized the schedule, the more delays are amplified
•
•
« pull » means that step N – 1 production is governed
by the capacity of step N, which is more robust
(for instance, design vs. development)
Each post-it is a signal (Kanban)
Only works with small batches
Yves CASEAU – October 2013 – Lean Software Factory
Avoid « useless work » (muda)
• waiting code
• unused features
• minimize reponsability
handovers
• avoid setup times necessary to
switch from one type of activity to
another
15/24
16. Part II: LSF Practices
2
LSF start:
May 2012
LSF Practices (4) – Love Your Code
1.
Sort, organize and structure code (cf. Practice 0)
Cf. « 5S with Java » - p. 192 from
Poppendieck
Lean : 5S (Sort, Systematize, Shine, Standardize, Sustain)
2.
Discipline (coding styles & rules)
Work better, more efficiently
Collaboration & maintenance
Define guidelines and automate checking
3.
Code reviews & « elegant programming »
Display you code with pride to your colleagues
4.
Less code (cf. Hibb)
•
•
5.
Remove what is no longer in use
Avoid what will not be used much
« Gardening » (code refactoring)
•
•
code is alive (life recycle )
Iterative process leads to accumulation
Yves CASEAU – October 2013 – Lean Software Factory
Code quality and Experience quality are
linked to one another
Collaboration & Capitalization
Future is uncertain, hence favor agility
over expressiveness
Cf. Google :
50% of code changes every month
Avoir accumulation, since it generates
costs & complexity
16/24
17. Part II: LSF Practices
2
LSF Deployment
Factory
What worked better/faster than expected:
Standups meetings (reduce email)
User stories (key to facilitate product owner’s role)
Visual Management (related to SCRUM)
What worked more slowly than expected:
Code management tools (IBM RTC) – 100% useful, even if it generates lots of debates
Automated SW integration test (wall of boxes)
“All hands on deck” , Pull versus push (still too much waiting)
Unit testing (test-driven development)
What is hard:
Reflection & Slowing down
Large-scale orchestration

19. Agile versus « V » Development Cycles
Part III: Lessons learned
3
Not everything is « agile » …
Clear & stable requirements, homogenerous code (e.g., technical patterns), Service Platform
integration ⇒ V cycle (strength of engineering, design methods, abstraction and anticipation)
Unclear / Unstable requirements ⇒ agile
Hardware projects (costly integration) ⇒ engineering + agile prototypes
System
Engineering
Ménadier’s “W cycle”
Iterative design
Time-boxing
Small teams
Project Room
(time & location)
Etc.
•
System
Integration
Coordination
Lean Factory:
continous integration
& deployment
Evolving existing components /
Build new (light) ones
Building new “heavy & stable” components
… but almost all activities benefit from a « lean » approach.
Cf. key ideas from Toyota Product Design:
•
Set-based design – parallel exploration, delay design choices with the most consequences
•
Tight flow (no place for problems to hide )
Yves CASEAU – October 2013 – Lean Software Factory

20. Part III: Lessons learned

Lean & Architecture (1)
Agile or lean software development does not prevent from building complex
products
In a continuous & incremental development process, one needs
an architectural framework to prevent from diverging
Complexity requires sense & common vision
Architecture is about communication & story telling
Architects are one of the backlog stakeholders
Refactoring is not enough (too much rework)
Architect must work in “pull mode” – they are here to assist
developers (not the other way around !)
A key Toyota principle is to share a systemic vision between all
process/product actors
Visual management → well-crafted artifacts
Design reviews are critical
Yves CASEAU – October 2013 – Lean Software Factory
20/24
21. Part III: Lessons learned
3
Lean Architecture (2)
Lean ≠ Agile, truly complement each other
Architects are needed to reconcile
« small scale » & « large scale » visions
Agile: well suited to change, focus on present,
delay decisions to match environment
Lean : well suited to complex/ large-scale,
focus on future & long-term, anticipation is welcome
Building a « platform approach »
Architecture is the « grammar for cooperation »
Conway’s law: (Architecture ⇔ organisation)
Coplien & Bjørnvig:
You cannot always refactor your way
to a better architecture.
The essence of Lean Architecture is to take careful,
well-considered analysis and distill it into APIs
Remember that architecture is mainly about people

What are your current problems ? Who are your stakeholders ?
Seven tips for a healthy ‘Gemba Walk’ / MBWA
Karmona Pragmatic Blog
Visit everyone
Go alone – Daily standup meetings aren’t enough
Don’t bypass middle management e.g. don’t change priorities, requirements or design
Observe, ask and LISTEN
Be genuine, have fun and strive to catch your engineers doing something right and not something wrong (you
are not the “fun-police” ;)
Share your dreams and vision
Don’t “disturb” the Gemba – Timing is everything…

Reflection : A Moment of Truth
Lauched Bbox sensation on time
Approximately as many bugs as similar products,
longer than expected to stabilize
Too long to reach
desired stability
SW mastery
SW/HW coupling
Poor delivery time
forecasting
Slow delivery of
improvements
Skills to detect earlier & better
understand
Lack of experience + pressure
from stakeholders
Pressure → breaks the “small
batches” principle
Sucess is mostly a matter of skills !
The good news is that we learned a lot, the bad news is that we did not know enough
A key methodological difficulty is that it is still hard to forecast how long it will take to
solve a problem
→ Stakeholder solidarity is still crucial
