Talks

• Microsoft's journey on Agile transformation (Ewald Hofmann)
Microsoft's Developer Division, responsible for building massive software projects such as Visual Studio, Visual Studio Team Services, and Team Foundation Server, has been on a multi-year journey to transform itself from a waterfallian box product into an agile online service and regular client updates. In this session, we review the process and practices used by this division to deliver faster, react to feedback, plan and learn, stay connected to customers, continually improve quality, and measure success. We discuss the organizational issues experienced during the transformation and give examples of key practices and metrics used to improve the organization sprint over sprint. Hear about lessons learned in moving from a traditional software delivery team to a modern DevOps team.

• DevOps jenseits der Tools (Johann-Peter Hartmann)
Seit 2009 ist DevOps Dauerthema auf IT-Konferenzen und bei Beratungsfirmen und in Inflight-Magazinen angekommen. Doch während sich die Tools hoher Popularität erfreuen und zum Quasistandard in vielen Unternehmen wurden blieben Firmenkultur und Organisationsthemen oft aus der Strecke. Braucht man die denn überhaupt noch? Und wenn ja, was muss man dafür machen?
