This is a talk I gave at the DevOps days meet-up in Melbourne in June 2012. In the talk I go over implementing Continuous Delivery in an enterprise organisation. Its based on our experiences doing CD in a large traditional Telco in Australia. It covers: - an introduction to the principle - the state of the art of Cont. Delivery in Single application versus multistream development - the optimum conditions to start implementing and measuring CD - focusing on the BAU/Support line as an entry point

“I
do
believe
that
complexity
is
the
enemy.

Un7l
we
be9er
understand
complexity,
our

chances

is

limited.
The
ﬁrst
thing
we
must
understand

about
complexity
is
that
not
all
complexity
is

equal.
And
the
complexity
on
which
most

people
focus
is
probably
the
least
complex

complexity
of
all.”

As an enterprise the thing you should care about is not the hype about serverless, it is the billing model shift it brings. If you are starting out on your DevOps journey in the enterprise, look to skip the complexity and costs of Containerisation and go straight to Serverless. This is a talk I presented at the DevOps sydney conference in 2018. It focuses on the cost benefits of serverless and why your organisation should care.

The model was originally proposed by Mckinsey as the "3 horizons of growth" to help business leaders honing their analysis of where and how to compete, grow, and best manage their organizations. In this talk I put to the audience the model could be applied to Technology businesses, and I attempt to draw the members present into a discussion on its application to people & teams as well as architecture or tech strategy. I also outline a few activities that can provide data points for consideration and focus the attention of people as part of the model. All this comes with the disclaimer "all models are incorrect some are useful". I look forward to hearing your feedback. https://www.meetup.com/CTO-School-Melbourne/events/235165561/

I was invited by Chris Gonsalves (Associate Dean Student Engagement) and Mehran Vahid (Lecturer, Faculty of Information Technology) to present a guest lecture to roughly 200 students @ Monash University on Agile Software Development (June 2016). Since the students had already covered the theory of Agile, Scrum and RUP, this talk focussed on the real world aspects of Agile in practice and used SEEK as a baseline example.

Over the last year, a team of software engineers have been quietly revamping the architecture, codebase and development practises at World Vision Australia. They have been using the principles of continuous delivery to deliver a SOA based IT platform for a non-profit who's business genuinely has a world wide impact. In the span of 6 months they have delivered several drops to production through a push button deployment process. We use Nuget, ProGet, WinRM, Chocolately, NSpec, Jasmine/Karma/PhantomJS and SpecFlow/Selenium/WebDriver. We test our deployment scripts with Canary deployments orchestrated through PowerShell. More interestingly we're using Puppet and Node.js to drive the idea of shipping products intended for single tenant architectures and the principle of "the machine as the artefact of the pipeline".

This is a webinar presentation I did with Daniel Aragao for the ThoughtWorks Continuous Delivery series. We focus on 3 common impediments to implementing continuous delivery and our 3 step process to overcoming them. Given our target audience, this presentation was not very technical, but focuses on ideas and concepts rather than working code.

ScyllaDB has the potential to deliver impressive performance and scalability. The better you understand how it works, the more you can squeeze out of it. But before you squeeze, make sure you know what to monitor! Watch our experienced Postgres developer work through monitoring and performance strategies that help him understand what mistakes he’s made moving to NoSQL. And learn with him as our database performance expert offers friendly guidance on how to use monitoring and performance tuning to get his sample Rust application on the right track. This webinar focuses on using monitoring and performance tuning to discover and correct mistakes that commonly occur when developers move from SQL to NoSQL. For example: - Common issues getting up and running with the monitoring stack - Using the CQL optimizations dashboard - Common issues causing high latency in a node - Common issues causing replica imbalance - What a healthy system looks like in terms of memory - Key metrics to keep an eye on This isn’t “Death-by-Powerpoint.” We’ll walk through problems encountered while migrating a real application from Postgres to ScyllaDB – and try to fix them live as well.

The standard Salesforce Approval process can be limiting in many ways, especially in complex scenarios. What if there was a way to implement very flexible approvals where one can use Apex code to make data updates in unrelated records, dynamically generate next steps details, and compute assignees on the fly? And still use UI-based configurations to implement concrete approval processes. In this session, we will share ideas behind such a solution and show a few lines of code to get you started.

How to differentiate Sales Cloud and CPQ on first glance might be tricky if you do not know where to look and what to look at. You will know :-) Managing the sales process within Salesforce is a common use case that can be managed with standart Sales Cloud. If you want to do entire quoting process you will find out Salesforce CPQ solution exists. What is then the difference if both can handle selling products? You will see comparison of 10 different features, which Sales Cloud and Salesforce CPQ handle differently. Simple question you will always remember if you should consider using Salesforce CPQ will be a cherry on top.

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Ever caught yourself nodding along when someone mentions "delivering value" in Agile, but secretly wondering what the heck they actually mean? You're not alone! Join us for an eye-opening session where we'll strip away the buzzwords and dive into the heart of Agile—value delivery. But what is "value"? Is it a mythical unicorn in the world of software development, or is there more to this overused term? This isn't going to be a sit-and-get lecture. We're talking about a face-to-face, interactive meetup where YOU play a crucial role. Come along to: Define It: What does "value" really mean? We’ll build a definition that’s not just words, but a compass for your Agile journey. Contextualise It: Discover what value means specifically to you, your team, your company, and your industry. Because one size does not fit all. Deliver It: Share strategies and gather new ones for uncovering and delivering true value—no more shooting in the dark!

I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
