DevOps aims to reduce conflict between development and operations teams through improved collaboration and automation. It advocates destroying stereotypes, involving both teams in strategy, instilling process discipline, and accelerating workflows with automation. Automation can perform tasks and connect processes to reduce complexity and accelerate application deployment. Successful DevOps requires open communication across the development lifecycle and treating releases as packaged transitions rather than individual components.
Whether you are a Developer, QA or a IT
Operations personnel, with organizations adapting devops practices you need to skill up
with the latest and the greatest of the devops tools, relevant to you. And its not the same
basket of tools that dev and ops both opt for. This talk is about the essential devops skills
required to transform yourself to be a next gen devops professional. And this is based on
real data, a devops skills report 2016 (to be published soon) by Initcron Systems.
Four pillars of DevOps - John Shaw - Agile Cambridge 2014johnfcshaw
Slides presented at Agile Cambridge 2014 http://agilecambridge.net/ac2014/sessions/index.php?session=57
Session Description:
The emerging practice of DevOps is a natural extension to established Agile methods. The choice of tooling to support the practices is important and will influence heavily how rapid, repeatable and reliable live deployments might be.
Three of the four pillars are concerned with automation through tooling but, arguably, the fourth pillar is more important than the other three together. The fourth pillar is at the heart of the Agile Manifesto: people.
The "Gold Rush" for DevOps is dominated by vendors and the push to sell their wares. But it is people who use the tools, people who define, develop and assure the software, and people who manage the services after they have gone live. One of the cornerstones of DevOps is breaking down the walls between development teams and operations; too much tool specialisation will lead to further separation and even the introduction of yet another silo.
This talk will cover four pillars to DevOps: Environments, Deployment, Testing and People. The insights brought together in this talk were gained under commercial engagements with government clients, on development of financial systems responsible for management of funding in the adult education sector.
The pursuit for the perfect synchrony between software development and IT operations is still ongoing, and striking the balance won’t happen any time soon. Understand and address these 5 common DevOps challenges to achieve a higher- functioning and collaborative organization.
Keith Zalaznik from Deloitte Consulting shows how arming IT with the tools to automate and integrate their core disciplines, real-time DevOps has the opportunity to profoundly impact the IT shop—accelerating IT delivery, improving quality and better aligning IT with the business.

Driving on from Agile, organisations are looking to
dramatically increase the rate at which they deliver
new software updates to their customers / business
users by embracing DevOps. This presentation will
explain the Micro Focus approach to DevOps and
how we can help organisations like yours as they
move to Continuous Delivery.
DevOps is the most heard buzzword at this moment and also the confusing one. For many people the term means automation or a new job role. The primary characteristic of DevOps culture is increased collaboration between the roles of development and operations. There are some important cultural shifts, within teams and at an organizational level that is required to support this collaboration. Even with the best tools, DevOps is just another buzzword if you don’t have the right culture. As an organization how can you adopt the culture required for DevOps? How to start with the new cultural transformation? Are you creating another silo for the team? Are you ready to embrace the change of mindset? In this talk I am going to focus on what are the changes you need to welcome DevOps culture to your organization and what sort of benefits you can extract by doing that. We will discuss the challenges and also the solutions for the problems.
The session will be suitable for everyone who want to start the DevOps journey as well as those who already started but want to validate if they are doing it right or wrong.
More and more teams are turning to DevOps as a way of working together to improve the efficiency and quality of software delivery and start adding more value to the business. But without having someone on the team with experience of putting it into practice, it's sometimes difficult to know how to get started.
Redgate Software invited Steve Thair, CTO at the DevOpsGuys, to deliver a one-hour training session on 'How to get started with DevOps'. Steve gave practical tips on how you can start implementing DevOps in your own organization.

Continuous Delivery & DevOps in the EnterpriseEberhard Wolff
Continuous Delivery and DevOps have a different value proposition in the Enterprise and therefore must be implemented differently. This presentation ta
De facto DevOps, de facto Agile. Today DevOps is the Manufacturing Revolution of Our Age. There is no escape for us. When got a DevOps, you got a DevOps.
DevOps simply is the combination of cultural philosophies,practices,and tools that increase an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity : evolving and improving products at a faster pace than organizations using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes.
Recently I was asked to explain what dev-ops is at a large enterprise software vendor undergoing transformation.
In these slides, I present the concepts, tools and mindset that drive DevOPS.
Simon White, Marks and Spencer Group DevOps Manager discusses the disconnect between traditional SQA & Agile approaches and how DevOps can be perceived as the ‘mature Agile’ model.
My read and summarization of the booklet on devops by mike loukides from O Reilly, great read for starters.. a good reference on automation, inreastructure as code
Managing one or two unique machines in an ad-hoc manner is not a story that many people talk about nowadays. Today, small teams need to manage hundreds or thousands of nodes, serving a myriad of purposes, running any number of critical Dev and Ops workloads. And they have to do it in a way that still leaves time for unplanned and strategic work.

Leading the Transformation: Applying DevOps and Agile Principles at ScaleIBM UrbanCode Products
Software is becoming more and more important across a broad range of industries, yet technology executives often struggle to understand how to transform their current legacy systems and processes to scale across their organizations.
See how Gary Gruver, co-author of Leading the Transformation, and President of Practical Large Scale Agile, discusses how you can apply the basic principles of Agile and DevOps across your organization.
Continuous Delivery seeks to deliver increased Business Agility by releasing smaller releases more frequently. To truly leverage Continuous Delivery, enterprises must consider impacts that span functional silos. Enterprises also struggle to apply continuous delivery principals to applications that touch older, slower moving components. When applications are a composite of numerous services, databases, and other components, managing dependencies can result in slowdown.
Join Eric Minick, DevOps Evangelist & Product Management Lead, at IBM. In this presentation, he will discuss:
- “Standard” continuous delivery
- Challenges larger organizations have with CD
- Techniques for applying continuous delivery to the largest applications

Securing the Automation of Application Deployment with UrbanCode DeployIBM UrbanCode Products
If you are contemplating the automation of application deployment or already doing it today with UrbanCode Deploy, you want to know that the proper checks and approvals are occurring at the right stages in your deployment process. These approvals can ensure that an application meets all requirements before it can deployed to an environment. This risk is that unsecured applications are vulnerable to someone inadvertently changing them or running them too soon or at the wrong time.
In this session you learn how to create teams and roles for a project and set up notifications and gates. You learn how to create authentication and authorization realms and permissions.
Everybody loves a good love story. And even more so one that mixes in pop stars and the music business! If you have an interest in hearing about how the benefits of DevOps can help unblock the delivery of IT innovation in your business then you’ll want to hear this story.
IBM UrbanCode is a leader in deploying applications to multiple platforms in complex environments. And Docker is an open platform for developers and system administrators to build, ship, and run distributed applications.
Laurel Dickson-Bull, IBM UrbanCode Product Manager, and Mike Samano, IBM Lead Developer for UrbanCode Integrations, as they discuss how you can leverage UrbanCode to deploy Docker containers.
Get Mapped: Using Value Stream Mapping to Create a DevOps Adoption RoadmapIBM UrbanCode Products
Adopting DevOps is not a “one-and-done” project. It is adopting a mindset, a culture. It is a commitment to a journey of continuous improvement by adopting a set of capabilities and practices that are based on Lean principles. Adopting DevOps requires process improvement, automation of the processes using tools, and organizational change to enable a DevOps culture.
The question then becomes – where does one start?
The world of IT is shifting rapidly towards DevOps with analysts predicting the majority of companies will adopt DevOps practices in the next few years. In fact, in a recent study on DevOps by International Data Corp. (IDC), they believe that DevOps will be adopted (in either practice or discipline) by 80% of Global 1000 organizations by 2019!
Forming a DevOps team seems like a natural step, but the idea of creating a dedicated DevOps team has ignited anger in the community. Why? What's the concern? Is a DevOps team evil? Completely necessary? A necessary Evil?
Join IBM UrbanCode's Eric Minick to learn the pitfalls of creating bad DevOps teams, and successful approaches of good ones. Along the way, we’ll explore other heresies such as using tools to change culture.
Continuous Delivery with Jenkins Enterprise and IBM UrbanCode DeployIBM UrbanCode Products
Jenkins, the world’s leading open source continuous integration server, and IBM UrbanCode Deploy can be used together to automate the end-to-end continuous delivery process.
See how Jenkins passes builds to IBM UrbanCode Deploy to automate the deployment of applications, middleware configurations and database changes into development, test and production environments—delivering higher quality software in a repeatable fashion.
Presented by: Eric Minick, IBM DevOps Evangelist (and UrbanCode guy), and Kohsuke Kawaguchi, CTO of CloudBees.
DevOps seeks to tear down barriers between development and operations that lead to slower change and worse quality. Implementing a DevOps Team that adds yet another silo to an organization can be counterproductive. Rebranding infrastructure or operations teams as "DevOps" doesn't help, either. However, scaling DevOps benefits from a dedicated team. This session looks to answer key questions when building a team to enable DevOps transformations. What are common DevOps team structures? Are there existing groups that can lead the transformation? Who should I include on the team? What should its charter be?
This deck is from a session delivered at IBM Interconnect 2015.

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.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
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.

Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
6. Stereotypes fuel conflict
• Impatient • Slow to act
• Temperamental • Temperamental
• Careless about changes • Too rigid about changes
• Prima donna artists • Always says “No!”
• Ignorant about the “real world” • Too dumb to understand apps
7. How can you reduce the conflict?
An improved collaboration between Dev& Ops
• Destroy the stereotypes! Get people talking!
• App Dev and Operations CAN join forces
• Involve both in the industrialization strategy
• Instill discipline with flexible process
• Accelerate with automation
• Do it now or executives WILL take action
8. How to make DevOps work
• Talk!
• Measure
• Accept and hide complexity but don’t love it
• Embrace process discipline across the lifecycle
• Start with a common release management process
• Automate release management execution
• Inject rich feedback across the lifecycle
• Change the incentives
• Adapt the organization(s)
• Measure
9. What is automation?
Tools that perform functions otherwise done by humans
Task Execution
• Individual tasks
• Repetitive tasks are candidates
Process Flow
• Connects tasks and decisions
• Workload automation and RBA
Decision Trigger
• Analytics (not just monitoring)
• When and why to take action
10. “Fast and Accurate” is not a paradox
• “Process = Bureaucracy”
is a misconception
• Discipline becomes
oppressive only
if taken too far
• Good process
enhances agility
• Automation
further
accelerates
execution
11. Agile Dev meets Agile Ops

12. The Typical Life Cycle Is Broken
Ops
App
EA Dev QA Ops
• One-way flow doesn’t allow for continual improvement
• Information developed early is lost when given to Ops
• Ops must resort to reverse engineering (a wasteful effort)
• Release from App Dev to Operations is a huge problem
• Thus, also a huge opportunity
• Cultural barriers must fall but tools must also evolve
• New tool developments are promising
13. Collaborate Across The Life Cycle
App
EA Dev QA Ops
Agile Process
• Feedback makes it a true lifecycle with continual improvement
• Automation based upon apps span the lifecycle
• Apps become adaptive like infrastructure now is
• Information is preserved and put to good use everywhere
• A well-managed portfolio emerges from people communicating!
14. Package releases for speed & accuracy
Move packages, not individual components

17. Will automation replace my job?
• Don’t fear automation … embrace it!
• This is the future … be a part of the future!
• History has not been kind to those who
resist the inevitability of progress!

19. Hot new roles emerge
• Business relationship manager
• Automation architect
• Service designer
• Service manager
• Vendor manager
• Process owner
20. Who does DevOps? …. Who automates?
Everyone does, but who “owns” it?
21. Summary
Pursue DevOps automation to lead industrialized IT
• Embrace the new reality of industrialized IT
• Talk to each other!
• Abandon the stereotypes of all parties
• Abandon the love affair with complexity – your job is to simplify
• Streamline the handoff from Dev to Ops (agile lifecycle)
• Get serious about process discipline, but don’t go too far!
• Institute systems engineering practices across the entire lifecycle
