Measuring Continuous Delivery & Moving Towards Operability

Session One: Measuring Continuous Delivery

Continuous Delivery is hard. The breadth and depth of recommended technology and organisational improvements, the smorgasbord of available tools, and the specific circumstances and constraints of your organisation create a huge challenge. Difficult decisions must be made, every single day. We can reduce uncertainty and make better decisions by measuring the stability and speed of the release process, the build process, and the codebase. These indicators of Continuous Delivery provide quantitative data on the impact of your changes, and pinpoint where the conversations need to happen so you can learn what’s working and what isn’t. In this talk, Steve Smith will show how measuring stability and speed can power a successful adoption of Continuous Delivery in an organisation of any size. This is a deep dive into the latest thinking on Continuous Delivery, backed up by long-term case studies in private and public sector organisations.

Session Two: Moving Towards Operability

All too often DevOps is a constraint for organisations. People have been led to believe it will solve all their problems, but it's shrouded in magic, mystery, and pixie dust. We want to distill DevOps down to its thing of value - operability - and help organisations to create a real feedback loop for their production systems and improve their delivery flow.
