Key terms, concepts

Continuous Integration practice where each team

member integrates their work at least daily - leading to

multiple integrations per day. Each integration is verified by

an automated build (including test) to detect integration

errors as quickly as possible. [1]

Continuous Delivery discipline where software is built in a

way that it can be released to customers (i.e. P7 criteria) at

any time [2]. Customers may choose a slower rate of

deployment.

Continuous Delivery is the next logical step of Continuous

Integration.

Continuous Deployment practice of releasing every

good build to users [3]

To do Continuous Deployment you must be doing

Continuous Delivery.

DevOps methodology to simplify and accelerate

production and innovation within a complex and dynamic

production environment by integrating the development and

operations teams

Continuous Testing a testing strategy focused on “Test

early, test faster, test often and automate” [4]

Risk Assessment Analyze changing demands

Requirements traceability Prioritize by code analysis

The Three WayThe principles underpinning DevOps

The first way: System thinking

Dev OpsBusiness Customer

• Empahsize the performance of the entire system, as opposed to a specific

silo of work or department

• Focus on all business value streams

• The outcomes of the first way:• Never passing a known defect downstream

• Never allowing local optimization to create global degradation

• Always seeking to increase flow

• Always seeking to achive profound understanding of the system

1. System thinking

“Being able to take needless work out of

the system is more important than being

able to put more work into the system.”

The Three WayThe principles underpinning DevOps

The second way: Ampily feedback

loops

Dev OpsBusiness Customer

• Create the right feedback loops

• Goal of any process improvement is to shorten and amplify feedback loops,

so corrections can be continually made

• The outcomes of the second way:• Understanding and responding to all customers (internal or external)

• Shortening and amplyfing feedback loop

• Embedding knowledge where needed

2. Amplify feedback loops

“Improving daily work is even more

important than doing daily work.”

The Three WayThe principles underpinning DevOps

The third way: Culture of continual experimentation and learning

Dev OpsBusiness Customer

• Creating a culture that fosters:• Continuous experimentation, taking risk and learning from failure

• Understanding that repetition and practice is the prerequsite to mastery

• The outcomes of the third way:• Allocating time for the improvement of daily work

• Creating rituals to reward risk taking

• Introducing faults to the system to increase resiliency

3. Culture of continual experimentation

and learning

“If you can’t out-experiment and beat your

competitors in time to market and agility,

you are sunk.”
