Culture Shock: Unlocking DevOps with Collaboration and Communication

• Watch

• Abstract

  DevOps is all about delivering business value as rapidly as possible. Embracing its philosophies goes beyond implementing automation and tooling to speed software development and delivery. DevOps is a culture of communication and collaboration.
  
  For many of us, shifting to this new culture can create organizational "culture shock," or discomfort by those suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture, way of life, or set of attitudes. DevOps is not something you purchase or have implemented by a DevOps Engineer.
