Hello everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Itโ€™s a privilege being a part of the DevOps Enterprise Summit. Happy to have this opportunity to share my experience with applying DevOps principles in face of the challenges that the pandemic threw at us. I will be around to answer any questions you might have.

Hi everyone! Mike and I are here to answer your questions, thanks in advance for attending our session!!

Ike Chafkin17:10:12

How were you able to have those newer devs provide value from day one or was it more a shadowing/training process?

Mike Leuzinger17:10:38

Hoda will likely add more detail - but in general it was a combination of getting them hands-on-code on day one with some of the more straight-forward feature backlog, while also shadowing/training with the Network Engineers.

Nick Eggleston17:10:09

Did everyone buy in or did you lose some talent along the way?

Hoda Alshami- Speaker- DevNetOps Journey, Nationwide Insurance17:10:09

I stated the goal to build automation backlog, ask folks to come with potential automation ideas ( existing manual process, tech dept ... ) so dev and engineer discussed the opportunity, come with the design then both work on dev ,test and deploy. example , first thing we did moved some scripts from running from on prem to run in containers and get all out of the box feature and capability come from that.

Mike Leuzinger17:10:19

Did not lose any talent. However, I think it's fair to say some were patiently skeptical for awhile. Hoda & I made sure the team knew the direction, with a lot of context, before the devs were introduced - but of course the team needed some time to witness it actually happening before they gave their full trust.

Hoda Alshami- Speaker- DevNetOps Journey, Nationwide Insurance17:10:49

@nickeggleston fortunately, didn't lose anyone, although we had weekly long retro sessions to address any rising issues. establishing team norms at the beginning really helped.

Michael O'Reilly18:10:53

Serverless Approaches can really enable Rapid delivery good to hear.

Craig Cook - IBM18:10:07

I see "map" in all 4 parts. Is each of them a Wardley map?

Michael O'Reilly18:10:17

Yeah, so you can use wardley mapping to create that situational awareness in each of the quadrants

Dave Mangot - DevOps transformation professional18:10:18

Are there any (non-vendor) studies that show that serverless is cheaper? (as opposed to equivalent) My impression is that youโ€™re paying the serverless vendor (AWS Lambda, etc) to do all the heavy lifting for you. That is, the heavy lifting, no matter who you pay, is not free.

Craig Cook - IBM18:10:39

This could be more about making costs visible. eg. moving to cloud is generally not cheaper, it allows flexibility though.

Dave Mangot - DevOps transformation professional18:10:03

@cncook001 I agree 1000% (https://blog.mangoteque.com/blog/2021/02/22/3-things-to-know-when-moving-to-public-cloud/). I just want to make sure itโ€™s not a situation where someone re-architects something after knowing ALL the things that they got wrong the first time they built it (which they didnโ€™t know at that time), and then concludes that the new technology is superior, even though the ACTUAL superiority came from having 10x the knowledge, not the tool.

๐Ÿ‘ 1
Mark McCann18:10:33

Yes, we have maps for each phase... we will get into the walk through in a few minutes ๐Ÿ™‚

Dave Anderson18:10:13

In the demo next, we have a single evolving map. But sometimes it's easier to have different maps.

Dave Anderson18:10:30

It's very hard to get a like for like example - few people build the same thing twice, but we observed huge savings over many years. One is written up here - https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-liberty-mutual-is-transforming-its-it-using-serverless-computing/

Thanks for posting the article, @davidanderson393!

Dave Anderson18:10:31

Sometimes the systems we built would have been very hard or not cost-effective to realize without the tech & approach we used. The TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) was always a factor up front - https://www.theserverlessedge.com/digital-transformation-finance-what-you-need-to-understand/

Thx! Took almost 10 years to figure out combining map & the flywheel. Lots of trial and error in real projects! Very tough to get started with mapping - but hoping to use the book to help people get started.

John Ediger19:10:04

rather than 'after DevOps', perhaps it's just a deeper dive into one aspect of DevOps?

Craig Larsen - he/him - Solution Design Group Mpls19:10:43

I canโ€™t wait to hear what we can do about Developer Productivity. Iโ€™m intrigued, and a bit pessimistic. I have hope though.

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:53

That's a good point, though we are taking a more historical context here, a next set of bottlenecks to work on -- but I guess you could start with DPE too, certainly not mutually exclusive. When you see the solutions, you'll see they are very much in the context of the build

๐Ÿ‘ 1
Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:15

Getting there I promise! ๐Ÿ™‚

๐Ÿ‘ 1
Daniel Cahill - Engineer - Ontario Systems19:10:06

How much of this Developer Productivity do you think Developers could improve if they focused on it vs a situation imposed by external pressures?

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:06

Quite a bit I'd imagine, but as you see in this slide its more about using pragmatic technology based solutions as opposed to process

Justin Abrahms (eBay)19:10:44

yup. I suspect also that devs lack the levers for shared components (like the company jenkins service being under capacity, etc) that are big time-sucks.

Glenn Wilson, Author of DevSecOps19:10:25

Wait! Security hasnโ€™t caught up with Agile yetโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ™‚

Justin Abrahms (eBay)19:10:45

@jreock Not sure if you've experimented with this, but we've seen success through things like usint OTel for build/test cycles.

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:42

I'll show you our tech in a second, caching and acceleration techniques mostly here

Nick Eggleston19:10:48

Is anything out of scope for DevOps?

Justin Abrahms (eBay)19:10:16

^^ And that's what makes it kinda impenetrable for some folks. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Bryan Finster - Defense Unicorns (Speaker)19:10:08

Yep. Thus the needs for defined tech practices and focusing the conversation on value stream improvement.

Nick Eggleston19:10:01

Because it covers so many things, it would be important to define/scope the terms at the beginning of a discussion or document, to frame things up...

Bryan Finster - Defense Unicorns (Speaker)19:10:54

Why I rarely talk about it as โ€œDevOpsโ€

Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:19

I have seen some similar items in Statsig https://statsig.com/ where you can also track feature adoption too...

Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:07

it came from Facebook too.. so could be the reason it seems similar... but this is great information..

Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:30

or I should say it was developed by former Facebook engineers...

Seth Tager - Salesforce19:10:17

We have people working on some DPE concerns but we have a big monolith and some of the improvements must come from rearchitecting the code itself.

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:46

Very true, and we appreciate you Salesforce! ๐Ÿ™‚

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:36

Increased modularity, optimization of inputs to cache, etc, can all make a huge difference beyond the OOTB savings

Seth Tager - Salesforce19:10:16

Yes, it's a huge ongoing effort and it competes for resources with new features.

Craig Larsen - he/him - Solution Design Group Mpls19:10:41

What I like about this is the proactive approach to some of these problems

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:16

Hans Dockter (who invented this and the Gradle build tool) would never have it any other way! ๐Ÿ™‚

๐ŸŽ‰ 1
Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:00

yep, we know there some delay, we can track some of the build time, like when we us twillo Bitrise and see what that time is taking...

Justin Reock - Head of DevRel, Cortex.io19:10:01

Thats where trends and insights really save you, a one-shot improvement is never good enough, you'll get speed regressions without staying vigilant

Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:00

yes, we ended up moving to a new model with them to avoid queueing and to get faster systems for building but it is not a fix to all the wait times..

Jason Hobbs19:10:12

Long build times is also a flag you may need to break your app into smaller chunks.

๐Ÿ‘ 1
Ganga Narayanan19:10:43

I've been reading about purpose-driven organizations.. this is a great example

Matt K. Parker he/him (Speaker/Author)19:10:04

although for companies that have transformed towards radical collaboration (like Haier) there has been some (significant) forced attrition. Haier, for example, let 12,000 middle manager go in one fell swoop

Nicole Forsythe19:10:37

Iโ€™ve had consultants advise youโ€™ll lose 25-30% of people in an Agile transformation

Daniel Cahill - Engineer - Ontario Systems19:10:48

This is reminding me a little bit about how credit unions sell themselves as different from a bank.

Seth Tager - Salesforce19:10:01

Seems like it's moving toward a gig economy where the unit of employment is a small group rather than an individual.

Nicole Forsythe19:10:39

@moonmaster9000 are you interacting with the folks at https://platformdesigntoolkit.com/?

Charlie Betz19:10:05

They have interviewed most of the companies you're referencing, check out the SoundCloud/Medium resources.

J Wright19:10:55

How do these companies hire in general? How can they ensure they hire top talent? Does hiring top talent actually matter for these companies?

Matt K. Parker he/him (Speaker/Author)19:10:38

I have stories about hiring in the book, but in many of them, the hiring process is left to the teams. How much skill people have when they are hired varies though, depending on need, like in pretty much in company I think.

โค๏ธ 1
Jeffrey Fredrick, Author-Agile Conversations19:10:08

@glenn.wilson : Theory Y suggests that motivation is intrinsicโ€ฆ but can be suppressed (or encouraged!) by the environment.

Daniel Cahill - Engineer - Ontario Systems19:10:34

I forget who it was, but earlier this week I saw someone talking about if promotions is a demotivating factor instead of a motivating factor. Do you think your research is agreeing with that?

@moonmaster9000 another q, does the term "intrapreneurship" come up in your research?

Matt K. Parker he/him (Speaker/Author)19:10:42

sort of --- however, most of these companies just use the term "entrepreneur" and "entrepreneurship" instead. or as Haier's CEO states, "At Haier, everyone can be their own CEO."

Glenn Wilson, Author of DevSecOps19:10:20

@moonmaster9000 now youโ€™re moving into the realms of Bertalanffy

Matt K. Parker he/him (Speaker/Author)19:10:37

Good to know! ๐Ÿ˜‰ <quickly googling Bertalanffy>

Glenn Wilson, Author of DevSecOps19:10:02

He was a biologist who wrote about General System Theory and how humans are different from animals. He quotes Maslow among others.

Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:59

@dacahill7 I think it can be demotivating when you have a model that only allows for a few promotions and not truly based on contribution and value they have to the organization. For example I had 4 engineers that should be promoted based on increase in skills, projects they lead and worked on, but was only allowed to promote 1... so 1 was happy 3 were not. I did something unique, I got all 4 in a room and laid out my problem that I can only promote 1, so we worked out as a group in transparent discussion who should be promoted.. even though they all should have been.

Joe Waid - Manager, Delivery Engineering - Columbia Sportswear19:10:07

That is impressive! It speaks to what a healthy dynamic you have on your team to be able to have that conversation so openly.

Denver Martin, Dir DevSecOps, he/him19:10:31

yeah, I told them they only have to share what they want to share and not any more than what they are comfortable with... the 3 that were already at higher salary agreed that the underpaid peer should get the promotion, it was like they were accepting them into the their circle. it was a good feeling all around.

hereโ€™s where Iโ€™d recommend Core Protocols. I like the Check-In protocol for this kind thing

not sure why more people donโ€™t know about theseโ€ฆ

Andrew Davis - AutoRABIT - DevSecOps for Salesforce19:10:29

The Core Protocols look really interesting. They need champions and people to help train others. Theyโ€™ll need a network effect to take hold.

Jeffrey Fredrick, Author-Agile Conversations19:10:52

And maybe timing? Perhaps thereโ€™s more interest in this subject than in 2015 when they were published as a book?

Andrew Davis - AutoRABIT - DevSecOps for Salesforce20:10:03

Maybe. Iโ€™m studying them now. Theyโ€™re really rich, thoughtful, and interesting.

Andrew Davis - AutoRABIT - DevSecOps for Salesforce20:10:25

Like a protocol for effective communication between humans, taking emotion into account

I'm going through links I opened during the conference: Do you have a good starting point for his work? I see some books and papers but don't know where to start.

Jeffrey Fredrick, Author-Agile Conversations01:10:40

happy to offer others after that if youโ€™re interested

Charlie Betz19:10:54

@moonmaster9000 are you past needing feedback on the book?

Matt K. Parker he/him (Speaker/Author)19:10:02

I always need feedback! But I also think I think what you're asking is it already past the point of peer feedback in the editing/publishing process and sadly the answer is yes
