DevOps for Executives (DEVOPSEXEC)
About this Course
Learn how DevOps brings together years of highly effective practices and technology management tools – from development and operations (agile, Lean, and more) – and aligned them around common characteristics: value, continuous workflows, cross-functional collaboration, agility, and strong teams. DevOps is the marrying of process, infrastructure, and product. This executive workshop will help you understand how to bring these groups together to optimize, re-think, and re-engineer your processes for IT service and application delivery.
We'll take a look at establishing a common definition of DevOps and understanding of why DevOps is so important. Case studies will help you understand how other high performing organizations are using DevOps practices as a competitive advantage. This class will also teach keys to fostering a culture for successful DevOps implementations, and give you a roadmap to get started. Finally, we introduce you to the most recent automation and IT engineering which enable maximum efficiency.
