  • Do you often find that when something fails in production, the response of a development team member is, “It works on my machine or at our end, you must be having the wrong version“?
  • Vice Versa on the other side of the table – do you find that the operations team always feels that the developers are not sensitive to the operational requirements and constraints?

If so, does that mean we are just developing software not a working system ?
Are we just working in Silos ?

DevOps aims at breaking the Silos and bringing in a culture of everyone “getting along”.

In this session Priya discusses how and why DevOps is the force behind the evolution where the development team and operations works together with business sponsors and quality assurance (QA) to deliver software that can be released to production at any point of time.

This webinar will highlight:

  • What is DevOps and what is it not?
  • DevOps Principles and Values
  • Team’s transformation to DevOps
  • Typical DevOps Delivery Model
  • DevOps Benefit Measurement Mechanism

Presenter: Priya Patra (LinkedIn profile) is a CSM (Certified Scrum Master), TOGAF 9.1 Certified Enterprise Architect, and Lean Six Sigma Green Belt, IGATE Certified Internal Auditor.  She has extensive experience in managing large scale ERP implementation, product, framework development and Technology CoE projects. Priva also has engaged in Talent , Competency Development Program at the account level to strategize for optimal resource utilization and revenue generation.

Activity Type: Education – Course or Training  1 Hour  1 PDU
Provider: Gartner Webinars

For a midsize enterprise intending to create a new digital product, Agile methods and DevOps should be the preferred approach.

Sometimes called “Agile done right”, DevOps is a philosophy and a way of life for many successful enterprises even though there is no definitive framework or defining authority.

Continual learning and improvement are at the heart of DevOps and so even if organizations start at the same place, they will be significantly different in just a few cycles.

But that doesn’t mean that there aren’t good, practical rules for starting, improving and scaling.

In this webinar Ian Head (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Research Director, will tell you what we believe DevOps is today and 7 steps you can use to get started.

Discussion Topics:

  • What is DevOps?
  • Why do we need it?
  • What are the seven steps to a successful DevOps initiative?
