“As a lifelong Ops practitioner, I know we
need DevOps to make our work humane.
In the past, I’ve worked every holiday, on
my birthday, my spouse’s birthday, and
even on the day my son was born.”

CSG: COBOL App + 20 tech stacks
Source: Scott Prugh, Chief Architect, CSG, Inc.
And the customer got
the feature in half the
time!
 Apps supporting bill printing and customer care for 50MM customer, 6B transactions per month
 20 technology platforms, including mainframe VSAM and DB2, Java, desktop client
 Moved from 2 to 4 releases per year
 Shared Operations Team performed daily deployments to UAT

@RealGeneKim
Developers Carry Pagers
“We found that when we woke up developers at
2am, defects got fixed faster than ever”
– Patrick Lightbody,
VP Prod Mgmt, New Relic
“You build it, you run it.”
– Werner Vogels
CTO, Amazon

@RealGeneKim
“As a developer, the most satisfying
points in my career?
“It’s when I wrote the code, pushed the
button to deploy it, watched the metrics
to see if it actually worked in production,
and fixed it if it broke.”
Tim Tischler
Director of Operations Engineering
Nike, Inc.

Surprise #3:
The Importance Of Measuring
Code Deployment Lead Time

@RealGeneKim
“deploys per day”
vs.
“lead time”

@RealGeneKim
“What is your lead time
for changes?”
“How long does it take to go from
code committed to code successfully
running in production?”

What Is The One Question That
Predicts Performance With
Startling Accuracy?

“To what degree do we fear
doing deployments?”

The Surprising Implications Of
Conway’s Law

@RealGeneKim
Conway’s Law
 Eric S. Raymond: “If you have four groups
working on a compiler, you’ll get a four pass
compiler”
(summarizing results of Dr. Melvin Conway’s
experiment in 1968)

 A story about teams of engineers implementing
changes

 2009: Devs and DBAs and Sprouter team
 2010: Devs

@RealGeneKim
Lesson:
The Organization and
The Architecture Of Our Software
Must Be Congruent

@RealGeneKim
Lead Time = 9 months
Source: Damon Edwards (@damonedwards)

@RealGeneKim
Architecture Enables Teams To…
 …make large scale changes to the design of its system without the
permission of someone outside the team, or depending on other
teams
 ...complete its work without fine-grained communication and
coordination with people outside the team
 ...deploy and release its product or service on demand, independently
of other services the product or service depends upon
 ...do most of its testing on demand, without requiring an integrated
test environment
 ...perform deployments during normal business hours with negligible
downtime

DevOps Enables
Dynamic, Learning Organizations…

@RealGeneKim
Dr. Steven Spear
“While designing
perfectly safe systems is
likely beyond our
abilities, safe systems
are close to achievable”
when the four following
conditions are met…”
Source: Dr. Steven Spear

@RealGeneKim
Dr. Steven Spear’s Four Capabilities
1. See problems as they occur
2. Swarm and solve problems to create new
knowledge
3. Spread new knowledge throughout the
organization
4. Leaders create new leaders

@RealGeneKim
DevOps Practices In Capability 3
 Single, shared source code repositories
 Blameless post-mortems
 Chaos Monkeys

@RealGeneKim
DevOps Practices In Capability 3
 Learning days and internal technology
conferences
 Embracing open source
 Internal architecture to propagate best known
patterns (“buoys, not boundaries”)
 Functional organizations

@RealGeneKim
You Don’t Choose Chaos Monkey…
Chaos Monkey Chooses You

@RealGeneKim
Capability 4
 Leading by developing
 The job of leaders is not to command and control, but
to create other capable leaders who can perpetuate this
system of work
“My goal is not to direct and control, but to guide and enable”

Surprise #6:
DevOps Is For The Unicorns…
...And The Horses, Too

@RealGeneKim
DevOps Enterprise: Lessons Learned
On Nov. 7-9, we held the third DevOps Enterprise
Summit, a conference for horses, by horses
Speakers included fifty leaders from:
Barclays, ING Bank, UK HMRC, Hiscox, Zurich Insurance,
LV, UK GDS, iTV, Unilever, SAP, Macy’s, Disney, Target, GE
Capital, Western Union, Sherwin Williams, Blackboard,
Nordstrom, Telstra, US Department of Homeland Security,
CSG, Raytheon, IBM, Ticketmaster, MITRE, Marks and
Spencer, Barclays Capital, Microsoft, Nationwide Insurance,
Capital One, Gov.UK, Fidelity, Rally Software, Neustar,
Walmart, PNC, ADP, …

@RealGeneKim
Observations
They were using the same technical practices and getting the same
sort of metrics as the unicorns
Target: 100+ deploys per week, < 10 incidents per month, enabled 53
business initiatives
Capital One: 100s of deploys per day, lead time of minutes
Macy’s: 1,500 manual tests every 10 days, now 100Ks automated tests run
daily
Disney: Has embedded nearly 100 Ops engineers into LOB teams across the
enterprise
Nationwide Insurance: Retirement Plans app (COBOL on mainframe)
Raytheon: testing and certification from months to a day
Nordstrom: 20% lead time reduction into executive bonuses

@RealGeneKim
Leaders Cannot Do It Alone
Teams with the least transformational leaders (the bottom
third) were one-half as likely to be high IT performers
Leaders cannot do it alone! Teams with the top 10% of
transformational leaders performed no better than the
median

@RealGeneKim
Leaders Affect Outcomes Through…

@RealGeneKim
Aspirational Suggestion
Congratulations for engineering yourselves into a unique
situation where you can affect how much organizations fear
performing deployments
Find ways to enable your “pocket of greatness” to be
leveraged throughout your entire organization
May require partnering with developers, Dev and Ops
leadership, and architecture
The rewards are worth it
