Why Go Fast?
Improve ability to Respond and Shift
Your organization will never have all of the
1. information to understand how to do better in
the marketplace.
More trials give you more

2. information
Information can lead to improved

3. direction and benefits for customer as
well as the organization.
Compete
“If you are doing quarterly releases and your

competitor is doing daily releases you will fall
so far behind”
Adrian Cockcroft – former Netflix Architect

http://a16z.com/2016/09/01/microservices/
“Instead of trying to get better at predicting the
future, we should improve our ability to adapt
rapidly and effectively to new information”

Lean and Agile
Lean – Management philosophy to eliminate
waste across all aspects of business
• Derived from Toyota Production System
Agile – Implementation of Lean for

software development
• Short sprints
• Continuous incremental value
Lean: Eliminate Waste
• Partially Done Work – Can not Demo, can not release it.
• Extra Features – Should only produce what is being asked for
• Relearning – Reinventing the wheel
• Handoffs – Make sure both parties communicate
• Delays – Anything that causes more time to delivery a value-added activity
• Task Switching – Team members moving from one task to another without
completing the first task properly
• Defects – Erroneous Functionality
How To Get To Fast
Operations World
• Care About
• Everything is stable
• Standards
• Templates
• Not getting bothered at 2:00 am
• Success
• Software is stable
• Backup and restore works
• Systems are operating within
defined thresholds
Developers World
• Care About
• Writing Software
• Working Code
• APIs
• Libraries
• Sprints
• Success
• Software works – Laptop and Test
• Finished Sprint
Dev Ops

Change Stability
Traditional IT service delivery: Slow, manual, and error prone
Requirements
• Define strategy &
required features Architecture
• Ensure service
updates are Development
aligned with
enterprise • Write software /
architecture integrate QA & BAT
underlying
services • Test that
software works OPS
• Pushes updates
to production and
manage service
The more complex a project becomes, the longer the schedule, and the higher the probability
of scope and schedule surprises.

Make Developers Faster
🚴
Extreme Programing (XP)
• Focuses on Software Quality and Responding quickly to

changing customer requirements
• Frequent releases and short dev cycles
• Improve productivity and interaction with customer
• Paired Programing
• Test Driven Development
• Continuous Integration
• Continuous Delivery
SCRUM Agile Project Management
Kanban
• Japanese for “Signal Board”
• 5 Core Principles
• Visualize the workflow
• Limit Work In Process
• Manage Flow
• Make Process Policies Explicit
• Improve Collaboratively

Infrastructure as Code
(Configuration Management)
• Writing high level code that automates the provisioning and deployment of
infrastructure components
• Not just script writing or infrastructure automation
• Uses software development practices
• Versioning control
• Design Patterns
• Testing
• Infrastructure is DEFINED by the code

• Vagrant, Puppet, Chef, Ansible, Docker, ect
Application Evolution is Driving Technology Adoption
Containers
VMs Serverless
What is a Microservice?
• A small and focused piece of software
• Stateless loosely coupled
• Language and technology independent
• Highly scalable and fault tolerant
Immutable Infrastructure
• Immutable : Unchanging over time or unable to be changed
• Once you instantiate something, it never changes

• Instead you replace it with a newly built instance
• Only works in a true cloud environment with API control over all aspects of
Configuration and Monitoring
Immutable Infrastructure Stack
Mutable Server

OS v1 OS v1 OS v2
Build Patch App Patch OS
App v1 App v2 App v2
OS v1 OS v1 OS v2
Immutable Server
Infrastructure as Code vs Immutable Delivery Model
• VM = 2-5 minutes • Container 500ms

• Software Entropy • New instantiation each time with latest
packages
• Infrastructure as code upwards
of 10 minutes to restore • Immutable delivery model 2-3 secs
Go Fast Safely
What About Security?
• Lots of Dev and Ops, no mention of security
• Configuration management tools (Puppet, Chef, Ansible) can help standardize
controls but not replace security expertise
• Must be inserted into the DevOps process (not a bolt on!)
DevOps Security Efforts
• Rugged Software – Integrating Security into software development

• Gauntlt
• OWASP AppSec Pipeline

Need a Place to Store Code
• A place to store current and past versions of code
• Ability to merge, branch, fork
• Ability to see who has changed which file
• Highly available service
• Ability to revert to prior versions
• Public or Private / OnPrem / OffPrem
• Social
Why Containers
• Micro-services Architecture
• Small loosely coupled and purpose built services
• Efficient Distribution/packaging vehicle
• Better aligning to the Dev and Ops of DevOps

• Puppet, Chef, Ansible are popular with Ops but not Devs
• Containers are equally popular with both
• Containers create a natural segmentation of effort
• Devs inside the container, Ops outside the container
The Impact of Containers on DevOps
• Guaranteed consistency for CI/CD
• Simplified light weight image files
• Only what the app needs and nothing else
• What is built on a laptop will work the same in production
• Open community built best of breed containers
• Public container repository - Docker Hub
• SPEED
• Deploy in seconds instead of minutes

Operations Fast
Continuous Integration, Delivery, and Deployment
• Continuous Integration: Merging of development work with code base constantly
so that automated testing can catch problems early.
• Continuous Delivery: Software package delivery mechanism for releasing code
to staging for review and inspection.
• Continuous Deployment: Relies on CI and CD to automatically release code into
production as soon as it is ready. Constant flow of new features into production
Evolution of CI/CD platforms

Repositories not centralized
