DevOps Culture and Practice with OpenShift

By: Tim Beattie, Mike Hepburn, Noel O'Connor, Donal Spring, Ilaria Doria

Overview of this book

DevOps Culture and Practice with OpenShift features many different real-world practices - some people-related, some process-related, some technology-related - to facilitate successful DevOps, and in turn OpenShift, adoption within your organization. It introduces many DevOps concepts and tools to connect culture and practice through a continuous loop of discovery, pivots, and delivery underpinned by a foundation of collaboration and software engineering. Containers and container-centric application lifecycle management are now an industry standard, and OpenShift has a leading position in a flourishing market of enterprise Kubernetes-based product offerings. DevOps Culture and Practice with OpenShift provides a roadmap for building empowered product teams within your organization. This guide brings together lean, agile, design thinking, DevOps, culture, facilitation, and hands-on technical enablement all in one book. Through a combination of real-world stories, a practical case study, facilitation guides, and technical implementation details, DevOps Culture and Practice with OpenShift provides tools and techniques to build a DevOps culture within your organization on Red Hat's OpenShift Container Platform.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You've just finished the most technologically focused chapter of this book so far. Please don't go off and think that you have to use each and every technology and technique that has been mentioned—that's not the point. Investigate, evaluate, and choose which of these technologies applies to your own use cases and environment.

Several of the testing practices are part of our technical foundation. Unit testing, non-functional testing, and measuring code coverage are all critical practices for helping build quality into our applications and products from the start. We covered many small but invaluable techniques, such as resource validation, code linting, and formatting, that help make our code base less of a burden to maintain.

We covered a number of different approaches for deployments, including A/B, Canary, Blue/Green, and Serverless. These core techniques allow us to deliver applications more reliably into different environments...
