@genek101 - any thoughts on offering a licence for a fee to distribute some of the conference content again internal to a company? I'd be keen to show talks as part of our dojo.

Good morning everyone. Hereโs a little Space Unicorn Holiday, parts of which played between sessions at Vegas last year... https://youtu.be/_BfhpUA86hQ
Morning all... fantastic AMA last night with @jonathansmart1 covering so muchโฆ couple of things got me thinking and I recalled @jwillisโ challenge: what next for DevOps? For things like CI/CD, โeveryone has the memoโ, and he wants to push platform next. Maybe we can also think about another goal, relating to enterprise agility? (I use the term to mean the broad set of ideas, practices, cultures, etc. that DOES would like to see large enterprises adopt, and that we expect to lead to BVSSH outcomes.) โฆfirst, back to the AMA, Jon Smart advised a couple of things: with a tailwind, it takes 3 years for a corporate transformation to agility (he prefers โagilityโ to Capital-A Agile), or with a headwind, 5-7 years and can be easily reverse e.g. under new leadership. Also, a lot of firms are coming with the wrong questions, they want a Framework-in-a-Box. Why? They donโt know whatโs out there, donโt know what questions to ask. Why? We discussed that perhaps agility-related concepts are not typically on the agenda in business schools (Jon mentioned a few MBAs that do some, and he works with some in London). So, we have conveyor belts churning out managers and execs with the wrong mindsets and then DOES champions try to turn them around on fragile 3-7 year cycles. Is there a better way? Can we intervene earlier? How? Where do the prevailing management paradigms come from? So hereโs a proposal for John Willisโ 10-year challenge, to accelerate the IT Revolution mission, lets make sure everyone gets the memo about enterprise agility.
Yes, this is the core challenge to changing an enterprise. Management thinks in timeframes of earnings releases. There's pressure to have simple graphs on PPT to explain how things are going and pressure to ignore reality and show that things are going well. We are being flooded by companies selling snake oil to credulous management who aren't current on what development actually looks like today and how quality feedback loops really work. Changing all of that takes time. You need the convergence of already having people trying, already having some level of platform in existence, and leadership who will be there long enough and push the right things so you can rush forward to the next holding point when they leave.
Same with schools training developers. Why the hell don't they teach how to test?
Maybe we should switch to the guild apprenticeship process for software engineering. Grab people out of HS and make them prove their worth to become journeyman developers.
At my previous place of work we started doing that. Having apprenticeships.
And the process incentivizes using them for a long time so you get a long tail on writing them.
Books are an important part of the toolkit but arguably we're quite rich on that front. Worth noting part of the AMA discussion was on short-form content - like the 1-Minute Manager series - should we write one of those for enterprise agility.
I agree. We should approach this at the scale of the attention span. Dave Farley has been releasing videos like that. I write short, focused blog posts. Those are focused at engineering managers and developers though. How could we introduce the Guido Sarducci "5-Minute College" to MBAs?
I would love there to be a follow up on this conversation. Back in 2018 we did a facilitated session with @jwillis, @genek101, @cwolfe651 with some great input from many others in the DevOps community. We came up with seven ideas that we needed to pursue over the next decade - These are the seven initiatives that we established: โข Creating Trust in the profession โข Education supports the Ethos (the MBA outreach!) โข Continuous Learning & Growth Mindset โข Great Ideas Spread Quickly (e.g. Feed an eco system of conferences including small meetups and sharing), โข The Business values DevOps (Get the C-suite to care) โข DevOps values the Business (DevOps needs to have business impact) โข DevOps is recognized as a service (that is delivers something the business and IT need - not a tool a person, or a role) โข DevOps is a Perspective not Prescriptive (that we deliberately reach out to diverse and competing points of view and cultivate I think we need to do a retrospective if these are still the right ideas (I think so, comments welcome) and also assess how well we are doing as a community in achieving them
I agree, but we need to get the domain language nailed. We still have "DevOps" as a job they are hiring to template Jenkins and I just gave several managers an "ah ha" this morning by explaining that CD isn't the robots but how we use the robots to flow value. If they don't understand the definitions, their mental model is wrong and we talk past them. How can we more effectively fix their mental model?
This is my 5th time attending, starting with the 1st back in San Fran, then Vegas, and virtual in 2020. Every year I am blown away by the content, the insights and the journey we are all on. Great presentations, delivered with passion, and many things to take away and use in my day to day world. Having the chance to meet old friends and get to know some new ones is one of the many highlights. A tinge of sadness that this is the last day, but bring on next year. Already looking forward to that. Thank you Gene, Jeff, Ann and so many more who make this happen

morning everybody! was anyone able to actually download the books we got? (there is an email about it) I can only access them thru the ITRev portal... https://itrevolution.ontraport.com/c/s/Xys/nHUG/6/6O0/t96/6oaVUJ/s3YqZF0Upi/P/P/UU> Download them all right here for free (big thanks to our sponsors!)> โข Sooner Safer Happier by Jonathan Smart (available ahead of its official release date for attendees only) โข The (Delicate) Art of Business Value by Mark Schwartz (which just released yesterday!) โข Agile Conversations by Jeffrey Fredrick & Douglas Squirrel โข Team Topologies by Matthew Skelton & Manuel Pais โข Project to Product by Dr. Mik Kersten โข The Unicorn Project by Gene Kim โข And for the first time ever, The DevOps Enterprise Journal, which contains all of the latest white papers produced by the incredibly talented DevOps Forum participants.
Hi Leonardo - the actual app will be ready in a few days and the books will be available to download to most iOS or Android devices. In the meantime, you can read books anytime via the library.

I was able to signup and use the papertrell app on my ipad to access and read the books
Wishing all a great Day 3 from the team at Infosys. Proud to have sponsored #DOES20. Do join us on Track 4 at 11:10 AM PDT as we share the DevOps Transformation Journey at HSBC: https://sched.co/edol

Show of handsโฆ. Who thinks a git repo for data is an interesting concept?
Data itself or for Data Management team practices like Schema?
@lbmkrishna more like having a place that acts and feels like a git-repo, but is there to handle the data you need for your DEV/QA/AI/ML
Another way to reflect on this: Would having this put developers in the drivers seat because they would not have to wait for IT to provision them the data they need. As you check-out code, the relevant data infrastructure that goes along with this code is also flowing in your CI/CD
Sorry lost my train of thought. What you saying E.T.?! ๐ป

Is it possible to buy a company-wide license to share/view the videos? Or does everyone who wants to view more than 2 hours of content need to buy a retroactive conference pass? @annp
Hi Rob - yes, it absolutely is. Here's a link with more information, we are finalizing everything as I type.
Let me know if you have additional or specific questions about this. https://doesvirtual.itrevolution.com/video-library-upgrade
Only one more question - when does -my- access to the videos expire if I don't buy the upgrade? (In other words, how fast do I need to move to maintain access? ๐
You'll have access via your conference registration for 7 days after we wrap this afternoon.
Basically, it will work like this: โข Buy before conference 7 day access ends โ extends +1 year after 10/23 โข Buy anytime after 10/23 โ access lasts +1 year from purchase
FYI, the purchase page does not work if the PrivacyBadger plugin is active.

Hi All, Question: How can we rapidly release code when the business refuse to accept the changes unless they manually test themselves?
Still struggling with this. But I expect, if you make the flow visible. Make your definition of done, delivery to QA and show that their manual testing is what is slowing customer delivery, well I hope that will do it.
Its part of the journey - you need to start to show when code is ready to ship, then the time between that and when it gets released - that is the business test time. Link the quality of the release to when it was ready and the gap created by that additional testing. The business really should just focus on the user capability. If you have solid automation in place, and on demand, or daily, or even as needed regression, its about building the trust around the quality, and then changing the approach. It wont happen overnight but using the right insights helps. [4:59 PM] If the business find a lot of issues that another story
@mboudreau327 yes, i had a convo with my director about that this week. It definitely helps remove tech debt, but more than getting the change approved. @themob227, "If the business find a lot of issues that another story" - there is some truth to that. Trust issues - the old regime's history precedes our modernization attempts
@jlaihee Feature Flags will help you deploy code with the new "stuff" launched in the dark. People (presumably the owners) can be configured to see the new stuff. Give your product-owners/veto-holders the confidence that a "rollback" is immediate and you will look like a hero.
@jlaihee Feel free to contact me if you more questions about using them
