The process of software development for reasonably small team (less that 9 people) is pretty straitforward. Usually it is based on Scrum or Kanban with some variations and simplifications.
For huge team with more then 30 people it is not that obvious. For sure teams have interdependencies both in coding and requirements management that can really slow down development.
For people and teams it looks like constant interruptions caused by other teams and management. The problem is that “classic” Agile doesn’t help.
In this session we will consider methods of scaling Agile in huge teams.
Incremental development is easy when we are talking about functionality. Story splitting has become quite popular as a technique lately.
But what about those cases when you need to do an architectural refactoring? Could incremental development be applied?

Il était une fois une planète remplie des dinosaures de L’IT dont la lenteur était proportionnelle à leur taille. Un jour, une météorite nommée Agilité frappa cette planète et entraîna la fin de ces IT dinosaures. Elle se peupla alors de nombreuses petites Tribus IT. Ces tribus réussirent à s’adapter à leur nouvel écosystème en faisant preuve de rapidité, de souplesse, d’esprit d’équipe et d’innovation permanente !

The Agile movement has done a great deal to bring more democracy to the workforce. Power has shifted from managers to individual contributors. As a result, we got empowered teams, self-organization and higher engagement. Now, some are saying that we are ready to get rid of management altogether.
So what is the role of the manager in the new agile organization? Is there one anymore?
This presentation sets out to identify how responsibilities are shuffled in the agile organization puzzle. What should the team do? What responsibilities does the manager retain? What new concerns need to be addressed that she wouldn’t have considered in the “old” organization?

Modern Professional Scrum using Flow and Kanban - Agile and Beyond Detroit 2019Yuval Yeret
Should you use Scrum or Kanban? You don’t have to choose: Scrum teams improve when they look at flows inside and outside their sprints from a Lean/Kanban perspective. In this session we will talk about Kanban-related myths prevalent in the Scrum world and identify common ground between them. We will look at ways to bring Kanban flow into your Scrum: the Kanban-based Sprint/product backlog, flow-based daily Scrum, visualizing aging work, and flow-based Sprint planning .We will describe ways to wrap Scrum with a Kanban flow system, and how DevOps fits into this picture.
You’ll leave with a better understanding of how Scrum, Kanban, and DevOps relate to each other and with ideas for experiments to try when back at work.
How can Scrum be used to deliver complex integrated products, like a fighter aircraft?
It's been done, and done successfully.
How do you keep multiple teams aligned on the same delivery using Scrum?

Scrum, Kanban, and DevOps Sitting in a Tree… - Big Apple Scrum Day 2018Yuval Yeret
Scrum, Kanban, and DevOps Sitting on a Tree... (Learn how to leverage Kanban & Scrum together and how to fit DevOps into the picture)Should we use Scrum? Should we use Kanban? Where does DevOps fit into the picture? The best agile teams already know they don’t need to choose. Scrum teams improve when they start to look at flow inside and outside their sprints. Kanban teams improve when they have a disciplined cadence, and effective Product Ownership and Scrum Mastership. DevOps really is mainly about doing Agile the right way. In this session, we will look at a core definition of Scrum, Kanban & DevOps, do some myth-busting as well as identify the quite significant common ground between Scrum, Kanban and DevOps. We will then look at practical ways like the Kanban-based Sprint Backlog, Flow-based Daily Scrum, Visualizing aging work, Flow-based Sprint Planning - which bring some Kanban flow into your Scrum. We will look at how to bring Scrum roles/events/artifacts into your Kanban. We will look at ways to wrap Scrum with a Kanban Flow system that looks upstream/downstream and at the higher level picture of a DevOps Culture/Process. You’ll leave with a better understanding of how Scrum, Kanban, and DevOps relate to each other and with some ideas for experiments to try when back at work.
How to set up agile backlogs and teams in real life environmentsZoltan Csutoras
There are many benefits Scrum frameworks has to offer. However there are always some circumstances that prevent an organization to implement Scrum on an ideal way. What if our teams are working on more than one product at a time? How to manage the situation if we have to support legacy systems and the former developers has been scattered to several new Scrum teams? Can we still apply Scrum practices? The presentation will focus on those questions and possible answers.
Life Has Not Been That Rosy With Agile : Rahul SudameoGuild .
In my experience, Agile adoption started in some of the organizations with lot of hype and inflated expectations. And in such cases, if Agile transformation is not handled properly, it can result in multiple challenges rather than providing the expected benefits.
This practical experience sharing session would cover some such problems I faced while applying Agile in different environments. The audience practicing Agile can relate some of these challenges with their own environment as well. The attendees who are on their path to Agile transformation can learn from the lessons and mistakes shared by the speaker.
The session would cover challenges observed due to nature of the project, customer-vendor engagement model, application of processes, attitude of people rolling out agile, unrealistic expectations, conflict in roles and responsibilities. It would also highlight challenges introduced to some of the roles (like Project/QA Manager/Manual Tester etc.) in Agile environment and impact on billing / project contracts / SOW etc.

Github Copilot and tools that help us code better are cool. But I’m lucky if I spend 90 minutes a day writing code. We really need to optimize the hours we spend reviewing code, updating tickets and tracing where our code is deployed. Learn how I save an hour a day streamlining non-coding tasks.
This talk is unique because 99% of developer productivity tools and hacks are about coding faster, better, smarter. And yet the vast majority of our time is spent doing all of this other stuff. After I started focusing on optimizing the 10 hours I spend every day on non-coding tasks, I found I my productivity went up and my frustration at annoying stuff went way down. I cover how to save time by reducing cognitive load and by cutting menial, non-coding tasks that we have to perform 10-50 times every day. For example:
Bug or hotfix comes through and you want to start working on it right away so you create a branch and start fixing. What you don’t do is create a Jira ticket but then later your boss/PM/CSM yells at your due to lack of visibility. I share how I automated ticket creation in Slack by correlating Github to Jira.
You have 20 minutes until your next meeting and you open a pull request and start a review. But you get pulled away half way through and when you come back the next day you forgot everything and have to start over. Huge waste of time. I share an ML job I wrote that tells me how long the review will take so I can pick PRs that fit the amount of time I have.
You build. You ship it. You own it. Great. But after I merge my code I never know where it actually is. Did the CI job fail? Is it release under feature flag? Did it just go GA to everyone? I share a bot I wrote that personally tells me where my code is in the pipeline after it leaves my hands so I can actually take full ownership without spending tons of time figuring out what code is in what release.

The Role of a BA on a Scrum Team IIBA Presentation 2010scrummasternz
What is your role as a BA on a Scrum team? How do you fit in? This presentation was given to the IIBA conference in NZ in 2010 by Stephen Reed. Stephen had worked extensively as a BA and moved into using Scrum with multiple teams at a large Insurance company. This experience led to a lot of questions around what the BA should be doing on a Scrum team. This presentation goes some way to listing what worked in the teams Stephen was involved in. The BA role does not change and all the skills of a great BA are necessary still on a great Software Development team, just more focused on being a team member and utilising those skills for the Scrum process of getting working software to the customer with more focus and clarity for the user.
A super enjoyable and entertaining walk through API memory lane, then a primer on how to test API's from a unit, integration, and monitoring standpoint. Then a demo on a CI/CD implementation I created at Snagajob.
A brief reflection on the Waterfall approach, review the Scrum elements and artifacts, and their purpose. Demonstrate Agile Scrum by providing real-world examples that delivered successful measurable outcomes to the business.
This presentation describes the basics of Agile methodologies and how it is differed from Waterfall. Then continues with the most famous Agile approach: Scrum
The PPT is about scaling agile across various non-cross-functional teams and the various experiments that were done before arriving at a methodology that worked for the teams.
Automation Culture: Essential to Agile SuccessTechWell
For organizations developing large-scale applications, transitioning to agile is challenging enough. If your organization has not yet adopted an automation culture, brace yourself for a big surprise because automation is essential to agile success. From the safety nets provided by automated unit and acceptance tests to the automation of build, build verification, and deployment processes, the iterative nature of agile demands a culture of automation across your engineering organization. Geoff Meyer shares lessons learned in adopting a test automation culture as the Dell Enterprise Systems Group simultaneously adopted Scrum and agile processes across its entire software product portfolio. Learn to address the practical challenges of establishing an automation culture at the outset by ensuring that your organizational makeover incorporates changes to your hiring, staffing, and training practices. Find out how you can apply automation beyond the Scrum team in areas including continuous integration, scale and stress testing, and performance testing.
For numerous large enterprises, the alignment of hardware and software processes is critical to managing an Agile environment. Agile Hardware implementations can be put in place by using the same framework as our typical Agile Software Development transformations. Start off with assessing the organization’s current state, then move to planning and preparing by and putting together a transition backlog, start execution with training and coaching, spread the cultural shift with change management and maintain and scale the transformation.
Практически все молодые компании гибкие. Именно это им помогает обходить “взрослые” медленные компании на крутых виражах конкурентной гонки.
Компания не может быть вечно молодой. По мере роста и взросления продукта процессы нужно оптимизировать — снижать затраты и растить эффективность, увеличивать обороты. Все это требует найма людей, приходится вкладываться в ИТ-системы и вводить правила работы в виде регламентов или чеклистов.
Может ли компания контролировать сложность и научиться меняться? В докладе мы поговорим, как именно можно контролировать процесс взросления и постоянно держать компанию в тонусе.
Agile Coach и Scrum Master как руководители нового типаAskhat Urazbaev
Мир меняется. Высокая скорость изменений трансформирует бизнес-модели и сами организации. В новом мире решения надо принимать быстро и уметь синхронизировать работу большого количества людей. Важность по-настоящему командной работы растет. Появляются роли, главной задачей которых является построение эффективной команды.
Речь идет о роли Scrum Master/Agile Coach. В докладе мы ответим на вопросы
- Какое место они занимают в организации?
- Какими они должны быть?
- Что входит в их обязанности?
- Что они должны знать и уметь?
В “классическом” энтепрайзе правят водопадные процессы. Это позволяет снизить затраты на старт новых проектов, но сильно ухудшает время Time to market. Переход на гибкие методологии позволяет это время значительно улучшить. Это очень не просто. Каждая команда разработки страдает от большого количества зависимостей. И в большой организации таких зависимостей настолько много, что представленный самому себе Agile в такой команде через какое-то время может и помереть. Перестраивать организацию процессов приходится полностью, сверху донизу.
Мы поговорим про специфику внедрения Agile в крупной организации сравнив две компании — типичную крупную веб-компанию и классический “кровавый энтепрайз”.
Люди любят деньги. Однако, большие деньги их портят. Не стоит полагаться на то, что изобретенная бонусная система сможет повысить продуктивность. Сотрудники всегда способны придумать 400 сравнительно честных способов максимизации бонуса. Прозрачность и понятность процесса сильно страдают.
Тем не менее в большинстве крупных компаний выстроены системы KPI для повышения финансовой заинтересованности в результате. Многим руководителям трудно представить, как можно управлять без этого инструмента. Безусловно, есть определенная доля правды. Это действительно удобный инструмент.
Мы разберемся, есть ли рациональное зерно в KPI и какими они должны быть в agile организации.
Что делать в ситуации, когда несколько команд работают над одним проектом или продуктом? Возникают зависимости. Мы рассмотрим как ими можно управлять и как повысить общую эффективность процесса.
Выступление на коференции AgileDays'15 20 марта
Бизнес требует от ИТ постоянно ускорять обороты. Сроки выхода на рынок постоянно сокращаются.
Применение гибких методологий в небольшой команде позволяет значительно уменьшить Time-to-Market.
Однако в крупной компании прямое использование Agile/Scrum затруднено: даже простое на первые взгляд изменение бизнес процесса может затрагивать несколько систем, за которые отвечают разные команды. Выпуск релиза приходится координировать с большим количеством заинтересованных лиц. Это сильно замедляет и проектирование и финальное интеграционное тестирование. В результате добиться снижения Time-to-Market кажется очень непростой задачей, осложненной к тому же непростой политической ситуацией, типичной для крупной организации.
Мы поговорим о системном подходе к снижению Time-to-Market для сложных задач координации релиза, характерных для крупных организаций
Вы слышали о движении #NoEstimates? Разработчики во всем мире отказываются от оценки! Не надо оценивать проекты, фичи и таски — говорят они. Это занимает много времени, да и процесс это не особо приятный.
Вам нравится эта идея? Вижу, что нет.
Вот например, как объяснить заказчику свое новое безоценочное восприятие? Хотите вы или нет, сроки придется называть! Что делать с обязательствами на спринт? А как же прозрачность? Предсказуемость?
По большому счету вы правы. Нельзя просто выкинуть оценку и все. Идея #NoEstimate в том, что можно увеличить прозрачность и предсказуемость разработки, если заменить оценку более эффективными инструментами.
Мы поговорим, что такое на самом деле #NoEstimate и чем практически можно заменить оценку.
Статегия agile-трансформации крупной компанииAskhat Urazbaev
Достаточно ли обойтись внедрением Agile-практик на уровне Scrum/XP или для успешной работы нужно нечто большее?
Опыт показывает, что существование в компании Agile только как методологии для команд приводит к слабому и часто кратковременному эффекту повышения производительности. Порой это дисбалансирует компанию и приводит к результатам даже хуже, чем были до внедрения Agile.
Для получения максимального результата изменения в культуре организации необходимы на всех уровнях.
Что это означает на практике и как этого добится?
В этом выступлении мы обсудим подходы проведения Agile-трансформации в больших организациях. Мы рассмотрим практики которые работают в российских корпорациях, а также типичные ловушки и грабли на которые вы можете наступить при старте изменений.
Мир меняется очень быстро. То, что казалось нормальным еще несколько лет назад, перестало быть таковым. Например, наши родители не считают, что работа должна приносить удовольствие. Они уверены, что работа должна приносить деньги.
Все поменялось. Теперь все уверены, что работа должна нравится. Если это не так, нужно немедленно эту работу сменить на другую, более развлекающую.
С этим можно спорить и несоглашаться, но победить это уже нельзя. Вопрос в том, можем ли мы это использовать и как это сделать?
Мы поговорим о геймификации, одном из способов этого добиться. Геймификация — это использование игровых подходов вне игрового контекста.
Вот и мы с вами посмотрим, как практики гейм дизайна использовать для улучшения процесса разработки ПО.
Энтропия растет. Так устроена вселенная. Команда или организация сначала использует Agile, и переполнена энтузиазмом. Она успешно решает свои проблемы. Но время идет и процесс перестает улучшаться. Возможно, команда выбралась в свою зону комфорта. Или улучшение процесса не так уж и нужно команде и деградация - часть закономерного процесса восстановления статус-кво?
А можно ли сделать улучшение процесса действительно непрерывным? И что для этого нужно сделать?
Мы рассмотрим в докладе особенности процесса улучшения процесса и рассмотрим, каким должен быть лидер этого процесса, его задачи и инструменты.
Выступление на семинаре в Яндексе
Как -то получается, что (по большому счету) альтернативы Agile-подходам при построении эффективных процессов нет. А что делать, если Agile применить невозможно? Причин может быть множество: "неправильная" структура организации, "не те" люди, негибкие начальники и так далее.
Невозможно построить скрам? Но придумать вам свой собственный скрам никто запретить не может!
Мы рассмотрим 3 реальных кейса провала внедрения Agile и вместе обсудим, как можно было бы поступить в каждой конкретной ситуации. По каждому случаю я расскажу, что произошло в реальности.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

Exploring Innovations in Data Repository Solutions - Insights from the U.S. G...Globus
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has made substantial investments in meeting evolving scientific, technical, and policy driven demands on storing, managing, and delivering data. As these demands continue to grow in complexity and scale, the USGS must continue to explore innovative solutions to improve its management, curation, sharing, delivering, and preservation approaches for large-scale research data. Supporting these needs, the USGS has partnered with the University of Chicago-Globus to research and develop advanced repository components and workflows leveraging its current investment in Globus. The primary outcome of this partnership includes the development of a prototype enterprise repository, driven by USGS Data Release requirements, through exploration and implementation of the entire suite of the Globus platform offerings, including Globus Flow, Globus Auth, Globus Transfer, and Globus Search. This presentation will provide insights into this research partnership, introduce the unique requirements and challenges being addressed and provide relevant project progress.
Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
SOCRadar Research Team: Latest Activities of IntelBrokerSOCRadar
The European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation (Europol) has suffered an alleged data breach after a notorious threat actor claimed to have exfiltrated data from its systems. Infamous data leaker IntelBroker posted on the even more infamous BreachForums hacking forum, saying that Europol suffered a data breach this month.
The alleged breach affected Europol agencies CCSE, EC3, Europol Platform for Experts, Law Enforcement Forum, and SIRIUS. Infiltration of these entities can disrupt ongoing investigations and compromise sensitive intelligence shared among international law enforcement agencies.
However, this is neither the first nor the last activity of IntekBroker. We have compiled for you what happened in the last few days. To track such hacker activities on dark web sources like hacker forums, private Telegram channels, and other hidden platforms where cyber threats often originate, you can check SOCRadar’s Dark Web News.

22. Theory of constraint
• Identify the constraint
• Exploit the constraint
• Subordinate & synchronize to the
constraint
• Elevate the performance of the constraint
23. Identify
Type I
• Fast response
• Hardwork &
Overtimes
• No time for quality
Type II
• Waiting for result
• Long queue of
requests from
other teams
24. Exploit
• Transfer all possible
work to other teams
• Get rid of
unnecessary
meetings
• Get help for
administrative work
32. Managing delivery team
structure
• Split into value streams
• Find bottleneck
• Cross-system and cross-component team
where rework is maximum
• Focus on the next constraint
39. Pairing story: Get From/Give To
• Client: GetFrom
• Service: GiveTo
• Use acceptance
criteria
• Don’t use inside of
team

As a Systems Engineer,
I want to get a
performance report
from Vendors A,B, and
C, so that I can
determine if their
software’s UI response
time will meet our .5
second threshold.
44. You are Agile Coach.
Team B have commited new
feature and broke team А’s
functionality
You can visit one retro. Which
team retro would you visit first?
A. Team A
B. Team B
C. Joint retro of А & B
47. In the middle of the
sprint people from
another teams bring in
new urgent tasks. You
could help but it will
broke your own
commitment.
What would you do?
A. Help immediately
B. Move task to the
next sprint
51. Managing urgent work in scrum
• Don’t care. It just lows
down your velocity
• Allocate a budget
• Have a person on duty
52. Policy
• Request is #1 priority
• Request is get fixed by
members of both
teams in 1 sprint
• Request is considered
as done if it is
integrated, tested, all
bugs are fixed and
closed
