Everybody knows DevOps Is About
Bringing Dev & Ops Together

But DevOps is also about understanding value, fast delivery, automation, quality, and tuning complex adaptive systems in a way that optimizes the whole.

In The Phoenix Project: A Novel about IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win  there are a lot of parallels drawn between the world of mass manufacturing and IT engineering. But even though it’s a fantastic book, Gene Kim and his co-authors only scratch the surface of these parallels.

If we are actually going to apply them, we need more. The total quality revolution of manufacturing offers more lessons for IT engineering teams than most of us realize…way more than the taste we get in The Phoenix Project would suggest.

Join Chris Knotts, PMP – (LinkedIn profile) and learn the lessons can be summed up in one word: Lean.
