The Rise of Cloud “…cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.” - @mattstratton NIST Cloud Computing Definition

The Rise of Cloud Consumption of compute is at an unprecedented level. @mattstratton

Containers disrupted the entire trade supply chain. ● Retool: ○ New trailers ○ New train cars ○ New cranes/lifts for ports ○ New design for ports ● Retrain: ○ Port workers move from manual labor to skilled labor ● Rethink: ○ Business models/pricing/costs change ○ Processes for cargo handling change @mattstratton

Slide 30

Resilience is a verb @mattstratton

Slide 51

Slide 51

Resilience Rebound Robustness Graceful Extensibility Sustained Adaptability @mattstratton

Slide 52

Slide 52

Rebound Returning to “normal” after a surprise or incident. Work done ahead of time. @mattstratton

Slide 53

Slide 53

Robustness The ability to withstand and absorb well-modeled disturbances “Known knowns” @mattstratton

Slide 54

Slide 54

Graceful Extensibility The ability to stretch with challenges to operational boundaries As opposed to brittleness. @mattstratton

Slide 55

Slide 55

Sustained Adaptability @mattstratton Recognizing and managing adaptive capabilities over long timescales

Slide 56

Slide 56

Why Culture? Tools influence the culture …and culture influences the tools @mattstratton

Slide 57

Slide 57

these are socio-technical systems @mattstratton

Slide 58

Slide 58

Why Culture? @mattstratton ● Fundamental to how teams operate and interact in a DevOps world. ● Allows team members and teams to define “how” they want to work and interact with one another. ● Creates “easy” wins that can show success to build on. ● Establishes and reinforces the other principles of CALMS

The Open Organization CONVENTIONAL ORGANIZATION OPEN ORGANIZATION “TOP DOWN” “BOTTOM UP” COMMAND AND CONTROL WHAT TITLE AND RANK HOW HIERARCHY PROMOTION AND PAY WHY @mattstratton SETTING DIRECTION CENTRAL PLANNING MOTIVATING AND INSPIRING GETTING THINGS DONE WHAT CATALYZING INCLUSIVE DECISION-MAKING MERITOCRACY PURPOSE AND PASSION LET THE SPARKS FLY HOW ENGAGEMENT WHY

The Open Organization Bottom-up, Collaborative, Continuous Innovation, Agile @mattstratton

Slide 62

Slide 62

Blunt / Sharp End Blunt End Removed from experience Sharp End People directly engaged in the work Upstream decision makers “Chop wood, carry water” @mattstratton

Slide 63

Slide 63

Sharp End Constantly building and destroying systems Strong signaling Improve systems based on strain Will do so naturally if given ownership @mattstratton

Slide 64

Slide 64

Why Lean? ● Provides hyper focus for teams on what problems to solve and how ● Findings of exercises heavily influence other areas of CALMS: ○ What should we Automate? ○ How are we going to measure metrics and process improvements? ○ How do we share best practices, success, experiences? ● Influences other ways to work such as Agile Software Development, Infrastructure as Code, etc @mattstratton

the five elements of transformation @mattstratton

Slide 69

Slide 69

Five Elements The approach expands the transformation conversation from Agile Processes and Software Development to include, Leadership, Product, Architecture, and Operations. @mattstratton Expanding the Cloud Native Transformation These establish a holistic system to address the concerns and needs of enterprises, moving away from a mindset of mere efficiency towards organizations that leverage technological advantage.

Slide 70

Slide 70

Cloud Native Transformation towards a Digital Future Expanding The Transformation Conversation Leadership Product Development Architecture Operations Leadership, enabling peer level conversations and creating a balanced system of increasing strategic optionality. Working with teams to create strategies for creating and capturing differentiated value by moving from a project-centric to a product-centric mentality High quality execution of strategies using aligned tactics, practices, and tools such as agile methodologies and software factories. Creating enterprise wide patterns and frameworks, to accelerate product development and ensure long term quality. Operational Excellence, @mattstratton establishing a foundation of resilience from merely reliable components.

Slide 73

Slide 73

Summary @mattstratton ● Remember the mission ● Remember the holistic nature of DevOps. ● Avoid overemphasis on one area ● Start with Culture & Lean, the rest will fall out of those two principles ● Understand the supply chain & Five Elements to achieve scale
