The process of creating and implementing such systems requires a lot of effort and can easily fail at any stage because of various circumstances. My presentation will help engineering managers and C-level managers understand the basic pros and cons of such systems and give them algorithms for choosing between different approaches. From an individual contributor’s perspective, it might be useful for a better understanding of why companies have such systems and how they are created.
