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.

One of the challenges of writing a book intended to be read by a diverse group of people with different skill sets and backgrounds is how to write it in such a way that means it can be consumed, understood, and appreciated by all. From tech leads, infrastructure engineers, and OpenShift specialists, to Agile coaches, user experience designers, and project managers, to IT leaders and CXOs, we want you to grasp a shared understanding of what's behind all the practices being taught and the principles that underpin then.
