In this podcast recorded at QCon London 2019, Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Sarah Wells, Technical Director for Operations and Reliability at the Financial Times about their adoption of DevOps.
Why listen to this podcast:
• Adopting DevOps is both a technology and a very significant culture change
• It’s a big change for most developers to be operating the software they build and if you haven’t done it before, it’s terrifying
• A safe culture means not looking for blame but focusing on how to fix and how to prevent things that do go wrong
• The need for a really good relationship between technical teams and product people in order to explain the benefits of investing in technology improvements vs new features
• Do everything you can to reduce the need for coordination with any external teams, because that slows you down
