DevOps Best Practices: Managing and Scaling Release Automation Using Visual a...XebiaLabs
Release pipeline orchestration has become an essential foundation for successfully coordinating and scaling Continuous Delivery across the enterprise. But in order for any DevOps change to succeed – be it cultural or process-oriented – enterprises must consider the diverse needs and preferences of their teams. They need processes and tools that match their capabilities and work style.
There’s a lot of buzz now about managing releases as code. Developers love being able to define everything in manageable artifacts. But managing pipelines as code is only a part of a much bigger picture, not the core solution. In this live webinar learn best practices for release orchestration using flexible approaches that work for team members across the enterprise.
Tune in to this on-demand webinar to learn more about these best practices as well as:
How to bring intelligence, automation, visibility and control to your release pipelines.
Pitfalls to avoid when using code as your primary method to manage releases.
How you can ensure compliance requirements in your release process are met regardless of the method used.
Eight Hours to API Literacy: A Fast, Fun On-ramp for WritersPronovix
Writers are experts at dealing with ambiguity. We do highly technical work, frequently without formal CS education. We find ways to make content out of wireframes, code strings, Jira tickets, and spit. We especially fall back on these skills when documenting APIs, where the information is often scarce and our understanding of the APIs and how they’re used can feel abstracted from the product. But APIs aren’t just for reference anymore. With an update to our New Relic developer site in the works, we needed to up our game. In February, we hired Chris Cowell to teach members of the Tech Docs and UX teams REST API basics. The class was a huge success because it covered the topics we needed to learn, but also because Chris created a lively, interactive, accessible experience. Even those of us who have been documenting APIs for years came away with deeper understanding and greater confidence.
In this talk, Chris Cowell and Michelle Fredette discuss high- and low-level knowledge gaps the training addressed, and how the class has enriched our docs and UX work, as well as our relationships with SMEs. We’ll share some basic tips and finally, we’ll talk about how classes like this one—which a participant called, “the single most effective technical training I’ve ever received”—are fundamental to the expanding complexity of our careers.

AgileLIVE: Continuous Product Learning - Part 1VersionOne
How sure are you that you are “building the right thing?” How often do you validate your assumptions versus simply measuring your progress? While agile methods often help organizations build products faster, many software teams get hyper-focused on points completed over real value delivered – or, more important, learning about customers and validating product ideas. Some people obsess over “backlog grooming,” but still produce weak stories that do not provide the context needed for teams and programs to deliver valuable products.

stackconf 2022: Shifting Left the Wrong Way.pdfNETWAYS
In 2010 the DevOps movement set about solving the blockage on the path to production. The Wall of Confusion! Developers would throw new software releases, new features, and new products over the wall to operations who were tasked with supporting these apps in production.
As a community we have been tearing down the wall of confusion for a decade (sometimes building new and different walls where it stood) and we have learnt a thing or two along the way. In this talk Hannah will reflect on how we often “shift left” the wrong way, and how we might approach this familiar problem in new ways that set our teams up for success.

Continuous Testing using Shippable and DockerMukta Aphale
While setting up continuous delivery for your product, one of the biggest challenge is to implement continuous testing. We are gradually moving away from manual testing to automation. But how do we integrate the automated tests into your system? How to run integration tests everyday considering that the test environment can get polluted with failed tests? Docker is a type of a virtualisation platform, a container. Shippable is a hosted cloud platform that provides hosted continuous integration, deployment, and testing to GitHub and Bitbucket repositories.
Revolutionizing Developer Productivity: The Evolution and Benefits of IDPsciberkleid

19. How do we develop the script and the storyboard?
@wshaffer74 #Lavacon @LavaCon
20. Storyboarding
• Encourages visual thinking.
• The storyboard provides a way to specify
the relationship between voiceover and
visuals in the video.
• Writers produce storyboards in
PowerPoint, using a combination of text,
screenshots, and animation.

21. V/O: Click an object to
display information
about that object in
the center pane.
@wshaffer74 #Lavacon @LavaCon
Screencapture: Show clicking
an individual host and
displaying the summary
screen.
22. Pitch Meeting
Writers present storyboards to other writers, as well as
representatives from tech marketing, support, user experience
@wshaffer74 #Lavacon @LavaCon
23. The Pitch Meeting
• Allows refinement of script before shooting
• Allows the development of a common
voice and set of stylistic conventions.
• Allows writers to leverage each others’
strengths.
@wshaffer74 #Lavacon @LavaCon
24. Review
• Ensure technical accuracy of the script.
• Proofread on-screen text to ensure correct
grammar and spelling.

28. Filming and Video Production
• “Talking Head” is filmed reading script
from teleprompter.
• Writer captures video of the product UI
using Camtasia.
• Writers work with videographer to create
still graphics and animations.
@wshaffer74 #Lavacon @LavaCon
31. Review Round 2
• All stakeholders review the finished video
and suggest changes or edits.
• Final video must be approved by PM,
writer, and writer’s manager before
release.

42. Lessons Learned
• Management support is critical.
• Not waiting for management buy in before
you lay the groundwork is also critical.
• Think visually.
• Small, focused projects can be great for
building collaborative relationships.
• Video can be a great way to demonstrate
what we do.
@wshaffer74 #Lavacon @LavaCon
43. It was excellent working from start
to finish with our script writers,
director and producer on the
videos. The key was having content
that is relevant to our users
presented in short, punchy videos.

Editor's Notes
<number>
For the vSphere 5.1 release, the primary user interface switched from this…
<number>
…to this
<number>
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a 3.5 minute video at 30 frames per second is worth approximately 6,300,000 words.
Support: video supports the knowledge base system. Primarily troubleshooting oriented.
Technical Marketing; Product demo videos
Tech Pubs: Instructional video that complements our written documentation and explains concepts and tasks
<number>
Style conventions of print don't always translate well to video. Video is a bit more informal – the script should sound natural when spoken.
Examples of writers' strengths:
- Visual representation of information.
- Natural-sounding dialogue.
- Eye for structure and tightness of information.
There’s where the talking head stands, in front of a green screen.
