DevOps for the Modern Enterprise confronts the uphill battle that many organizations face when it comes to the modernization of their legacy IT infrastructure. Most have evolved over the years by learning lessons from traditional or legacy manufacturing, such as creating a production process that puts the emphasis on the process instead of the people performing the tasks and by allowing organizations to treat people like resources to try to achieve high-quality outcomes. But those practices and ideas are failing modern IT, where collaboration and creativeness are required to achieve high-performing, high-quality success. Using principles from Agile, Lean and DevOps, as well as first-hand examples from the enterprise world, Hering addresses the different challenges that legacy organizations face as they transform into modern IT departments.
