Bridge the gap between vision and implementation of DevOps practices in corporate environments. This book follows the story of Ben, a development lead beset by problems at work. Step by step, we see Ben build the momentum needed to create positive changes within his company in its adoption of Agile, DevOps, and microservices architecture by thinking less about outcomes and more about building positive habits.
Most of us face a "Now what?" moment early on in our DevOps journey. We're excited about the possibilities with DevOps to cut through artificial restraints, eliminate waste, speed up our development life cycle, and improve our lead time in delivering value faster and with higher quality. But we're often at a loss as to where to start after attending an offsite workshop or reading a book. There seems to be so much to do and we don't have the power to change everything.
We need to know how to effect change in an organization from the bottom up, build support, and learn a pattern of progressively building on success. These are the challenges surrounding DevOps, and this book shows you how to navigate the political waters, build management support, show measurable results, and bring DevOps successfully into an organization.

Apply metrics to avoid ambiguity and tap into the executive level commitment needed for sustained success
Harness key contributors for success in building out your road map in a phased, low-risk approach
Support your DevOps effort by implementing a microservices architecture
Make Conway's Law and the structure of your organization work in your favor rather than against you
