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.

Why — For What Reason or Purpose?

While this book may have been positioned as a book about technology, it is, at most, only one-third about technology. DevOps is really all about collaboration. We wrote this book because we want to increase your understanding of DevOps, collaboration, and cultural and engineering practices on a container platform such as OpenShift. We want to make moving to DevOps easier and provide a clearer path for you to apply DevOps using OpenShift. We want to excite you when reading this and give you some inspiration as to how you can apply DevOps principles and practices. We want to equip you to go out and try these new techniques and practices.

As you progress through this book, we want you to continually measure the usefulness (impact/value) of using these new techniques. In fact, every time you try something out, we want you to think about and measure what impact it had.

That impact might be at an individual level: What impact did trying that...
