- #9 Antifragility Kata when you hear the phrase we need more time for this release, your response should be to release more often – Adrian Cockcroft
- #10 Infrastructure as code is the ability to build some or all of an environment for an application/system (from Dev to Prod) using software (usually scripts and command lines), from the bare metal up: server, storage, operating system, database, metadata, data, network, shared services, code, identities, authorisations… The ideal is for a single package to contain the code for an application and an environment to run that application.
- #11 Trust Empowerment Change facilitation Improved flow Let them do their own risk assessment
- #12 Development owns as much of the lifecycle as possible, possibly including deployment to production. Toolsmiths and boilermen Rugged DevOps Operations move to more of a supervisory capability, setting policy and controls and overseeing environments, with execution of many operational tasks performed by Development teams. Operationally ready code
- #14 Automation is key to increasing deployment speed and frequency without sacrificing quality: automation of merge, build, test, approve, release, deploy. The extreme ideal is a "deploy" button which allows a developer to deploy through all environments, tests, and controls into production without intervention.
- #15 Automation Unicorns Continuous Deployment means code is released at any time, unconstrained by windows or schedules.

- #17 Check in to trunk Test against a prod-like image Always ready to deploy Continuous integration is the ability to test code against a production-like image at all stages of the lifecycle from early unit development so it is always guaranteed to work in Production (for some defined meaning of "always" and "guaranteed") ...and no forks: no branching of cide; one version; no merges; no regression Continuous Delivery means code is always ready to deploy (for some defined meaning of "always" and "ready")
