8. Challenges evolving your DevOps practices
and leveraging the cloud

9. Lack of Cloud Expertise
Overcome lack of in-house cloud experience
Leverage tools that have
cloud best practices built in
Outsource to knowledgeable
service providers
Hire new cloud talentTraining

10. DevOps – How do you select the right tools for the cloud?

11. Increased burden on the developer
Avoid consuming developers’ time building and maintaining ad-hoc scripts
What was created for on-prem will
not work in the cloud
ARA / ARO tools

12. Security and Governance
Bake security and governance into your pipelines, don’t include as an afterthought
Strong role and
permission management
to ensure segregation of
duties
Cost controls
(automated rollback, full
cleanup of resources after
each deploy completes)
Protection of cloud
resources as if they were
on-premise
Security checks are
automatically completed
in the pipeline

13. Onboarding and Scaling
How to scale from one team to many… Leverage your rock stars to
create standard and
reusable templates
Convert to blueprints so
that all your teams can
consume in a reliable way
Ensure you leverage tools
that are built for the
Enterprise

14. Custom approaches are good at
solving very specific problems
Templates and blueprints apply a
single solution across apps, teams,
and environments
Typical first approach
Enterprise solution
