DevOps Enterprise Summit London Virtual

Over the past year, Dr. Kersten and his research team have been collecting exhaustive value stream data sets from enterprise IT organizations undergoing digital transformation. They have used the Flow Metrics defined in the Project to Product book to trace the path that hundreds of thousands of software artifacts take from inception to running software. As they sliced and diced that data to correlate flow metrics to business results, some fascinating diagnostics emerged. In this talk, Dr. Kersten will summarize those learnings, and show the correlation of each to one of the Five Ideals from The Unicorn Project. From minor maladies to major pathologies, each of the flow diagnostics offers powerful lessons that help us understand the biggest bottlenecks to achieving DevOps at scale.
