Solving for Silos
• Cross Functional Teams– Teams built from a pool of talent with various skills– Teams work towards common goal, achieve goal,
then move on– Popular at “new” companies/divisions
Solving for Silos
• Cross Functional Teams– Already done many places for “projects”– Large scale this requires “blowing up” the entire
org– Creates new Silos
Solving for Silos
• DevOps team
– DevOp Engineers
– DevOp products
Solving for Silos
• DevOps team
– Team fails, thus DevOps is a failure
– Misses the point
