This whitepaper discusses how organizations can apply DevOps and Agile methodologies to legacy environments. It recommends starting with automating infrastructure components like the operating system build and configuration process. Automating these processes can standardize environments, reduce manual work, and help keep systems updated and compliant over their lifecycles. The whitepaper argues that automating the OS layer will save time and provide benefits before even addressing applications.
Jeffrey Snover - Empowering DevOps with Azure StackWinOps Conf
Azure Stack is the first product in a new category – the hybrid cloud platform. It is a radical new product that you can think of as delivering the cloud equivalent of a SAN. Delivering a set of IaaS/PaaS Services, APIs, PowerShell and tooling experiences that are consistent with Azure allows it to run solutions from the Azure Marketplace. This allows companies to focus their dev and ops teams on the things that move their business forward, building applications which drive customer value.
This session focuses on what Azure Stack is and is not. It articulates the key values it delivers and use cases it enables.

"DevOps" denotes a close collaboration and cross-pollination between previous cases i.e, purely the development roles, operations roles and QA roles. As it is necessary for the software to release at an ever-increasing rate, we can see that the old "waterfall" develop-test-release cycle is broken. Devops provides us with consistent software delivery, Faster resolution of complex problems and neatier and crisp feature delivery.

WinOps Conf 2016 - Matteo Emili - Development and QA Dilemmas in DevOpsWinOps Conf
The quick rise of Continuous Delivery in the enterprise means that common problems are often approached the other way round. Concepts like Feature Flags and Testing In Production caused several headaches to developers and QA engineers, especially where they have a wealth of experience about traditional development.
There are some challenges and approaches which are very common, and they still scare newcomers. Let's have a look at a few of these, with the most common solutions.
Deploying systems using AWS DevOps tools
You've heard a lot about DevOps, but have you ever wondered which tools to use to deploy your systems? Join Karl Schwirz and Matt Parr from Slalom Consulting as they walk through a code pipeline deployment on AWS. In this MassTLC DevOps session, Matt and Karl will walk through a real-world application deployment using CloudFormation, CodeDeploy, CodePipeline and Chef.
Sam Guckenheimer - Moving to One Engineering SystemWinOps Conf
This is the story of transforming Microsoft to One Engineering System with a globally distributed 24x7x365 service on the public cloud. We’ll show you round the system that handles the load of some of the most demanding engineering teams in the world and share some stories about how they got there.
When looking at the principles and practices of DevOps as well as the opportunity of adopting Serverless, we can be left thinking if these two approaches to delivering software compatible? The original premise of DevOps was to bring developers and operations closer together. Serverless architectures attempt to remove the operational burden as much as possible. Framed this way, you’d think they were incompatible, but DevOps has come along way since those early beginnings. We’ll use the three ways to look at how using Serverless takes us closer to operating with a DevOps mindset.
As software teams transition to cloud-based architectures and adopt more agile processes, the tools they need to support their development cycles will change. In this session, we'll take you through the transition that Amazon made to a service-oriented architecture over a decade ago. We will share the lessons we learned, the processes we adopted, and the tools we built to increase both our agility and reliability. We will also introduce you to AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodePipeline, and AWS CodeDeploy, three new services born out of Amazon's internal DevOps experience.
We'll discover the reasons why it is a risky bet to not *aim* to manage infrastructure and its configuration with idempotence and immutability at heart.
Sharing real world experience, we'll see why configurations should not be done by humans (it's like playing Djenga), and why what may work at the beginning does not work over a long period of time or scale (pet vs cattle problem).

The DNA of Care: the importance of listening to staff stories
Presented by Dr Karen Deeny, Staff Experience Programme Lead at NHS England (@karendeeny1), and Dr Pip Hardy (@PilgrimPip), Co-founder of the Patient Voices Programme (@PatientVoicesUK).
The intertwined relationship between patient care and staff well-being has been likened to the double helix. And so the stories we tell each other are like the DNA of care, transmitting information and shaping cultures, offering learning opportunities and, sometimes, healing.
Updating a CAE model (FEM or CFD) to the experimental acquired shape is a key step in the Quality Assessment Process. A workflow based on RBF mesh morphing is proposed and demonstrated on a research case: the wind tunnel test article of the European FP7 project RIBES.

WHITEPAPER
How to do Devops Without
Leaving Legacy Behind
An increasingly apparent and large challenge in IT organizations is how teams can
effectively modernize software development and IT operations while still operating
and maintaining legacy infrastructure. Often the approach is to merely draw a line
in the sand, creating an arbitrary cut-off whereby new implementations make use
of the much desired DevOps and Agile methodology.
But what about the legacy environments?
Just because something is “legacy” doesn’t automatically mean that it’s twenty years
old. Many so-called legacy systems were deployed mere months ago—and on modern
hardware, operating systems, and storage. For the sake of an agile organization,
however, a legacy deployment or environment is anything that is not included in the
new processes and approaches required for a DevOps-enabled organization.
August 7, 2015 | Justin Nemmers
2. Whitepaper: How to do Devops Without Leaving Legacy Behind

The question remains: how can IT organizations successfully apply DevOps and Agile
methodologies to existing legacy environments, and what are the benefits from doing this?
START WITH THE INFRASTRUCTURE
Regardless of the type and variety of applications in an enterprise IT environment, there are likely
many commonalities in the operating system and infrastructure components.
Manual OS build processes typically
require significant admin-hours to
deliver a single build. Additionally,
the reliability of the result is a totally
dependent on an admin’s experience,
skill and ability to precisely follow a set
of complicated directions. Then that
admin needs to repeat this process
over and over again for each of the
systems in the environment.
There are other teams involved with
build processes as well. Before the
application delivery team can do their
job, the information assurance team
needs to validate that the correct
security baseline has been applied.
The more teams that need to touch
a system, the longer it will take to
implement, and the more likely you are
to encounter delays and errors.
The system and server build process
is thankfully well-understood, and
easily automated. Regardless of
your current OS build process (core
build at provisioning, gold disk, etc.),

there are likely many commonalities across
your environment. Automating this build
and configuration process will enable you to
repeatedly deploy OS images on-demand, and,
with the right tooling, manage those existing
builds as easily as you create new ones so that
systems will always look the same.
Once the OS build and management
process have been automated, making
these automations available to other teams
becomes relatively trivial. Typical consumers
of OS builds, such as development,
testing, and QA teams, can trust they’re
always working with the proper base
OS configuration while building their
applications.
Merely building systems, however, ignores
the much harder part of the problem:
keeping them updated through their
lifecycles. How can you ensure that these
meet the current baseline requirements
as well? This is again where your choice in
automation tooling makes a difference.
A key problem with the traditional virtual
machine (VM) lifecycle approach is that in
the past, it has required a separate process
for maintenance of existing VMs… and
many provisioning tools have a difficult time
updating and making changes to existing
systems in a live-running environment.
