Top Predictors Of IT Performance (2014)

• Version control of all production artifacts

• Continuous integration and deployment

• Automated testing

• Peer-review of production changes (vs. external change approval)

• High trust culture

• Proactive monitoring of the production environment

• Win-win relationship between Dev and Ops

Session ID:

DevOps Is For The Unicorns…

...And The Horses, Too


DevOps Enterprise: Lessons Learned

On Nov. 7-9, we held the third DevOps Enterprise Summit, a conference for horses, by horses

Speakers included fifty leaders from:• Barclays, ING Bank, UK HMRC, Zurich Insurance, LV, UK

GDS, iTV, Unilever, SAP, Macy’s, Disney, Target, GE Capital,

Western Union, Sherwin Williams, Blackboard, Nordstrom, Telstra, US Department of Homeland Security, CSG,

Raytheon, IBM, Ticketmaster, MITRE, Marks and Spencer,

Barclays Capital, Microsoft, Nationwide Insurance, Capital One, Gov.UK, Fidelity, Rally Software, Neustar, Walmart,

PNC, ADP, …


Observations

They were using the same technical practices and getting the same sort of metrics as the unicorns

• Target: 100+ deploys per week, < 10 incidents per month, enabled 53 business initiatives

• Capital One: 100s of deploys per day, lead time of minutes• Macy’s: 1,500 manual tests every 10 days, now 100Ks automated

tests run daily• Disney: Has embedded nearly 100 Ops engineers into LOB teams

across the enterprise• Nationwide Insurance: Retirement Plans app (COBOL on

mainframe)• Raytheon: testing and certification from months to a day• US CIS: security and compliance testing run every code commit


Polling question 2

“On a scale of 1-7 how fearful are you of Deployments?(1= no fear, 7= existential fear)”

1. No fear

2. 2

3. 3

4. 4

5. 5

6. 6

7. Existential fear!

How Are Deployments Currently Handled?


What Does that Mean? Challenges!

Manual, error-prone steps

Environment differences and configuration drift

Time spent troubleshooting deployment failures

Complex application dependencies

Difficulty Provisioning

Lack of self-service


We cannot put it more simply:To accelerate your DevOps adoption,

and get the biggest bang for your buck:
