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.

We're going to share some real-world examples of how we've used them and, where possible, we'll even show them in action. Using our Pet Battle case study (more on that later), we're going to bring them to life in a fun way and we'll share the best tips that we've picked up in the field.

A problem we hit a few years ago when working with our customers' new teams was explaining how and when you might want to use different practices and in what order. What practice should we start with? What practice links nicely to the output produced from a previous practice, and so on?

To help with this, we have made use of an open-source navigator tool called Mobius. This was created by Gabrielle Benefield and Ryan Shriver...
