The year ahead in DevOps and agile: time to instill a sense of urgency
Summary
In a year which will be marked by rebuilding in a post-pandemic environment, accompanied by ever-accelerating digital competition, guess who will be under enormous pressure to deliver software with little or even reduced budgets? To make progress with DevOps, Simkins advocates ongoing improvement with these efforts "to build a strong foundation for your engineering team, which in turn will increase speed and efficiency. Take the time to identify the areas where an improved DevOps cycle would provide value and prioritizing the work alongside the rest of your software development process is an important investment when it comes to growing your agile team." "People know they need to change how they think about technology, they talk about digital transformation, but I dont know that they really see how the values and principles of the Agile Manifesto connect to this, how you can use them to make it a reality. "Agile technology initiatives include business lines -- especially as process managers continue to get more deeply involved in automation," according to Nicolas Chabanoles, CTO at Bonitasoft.
