Presentation: "What can DevOps Learn from Formula 1?"
Time:
Monday 15:30 - 16:30
Location:
Roebling/Gleason
Abstract:
Both Formula 1 and DevOps teams are driven by
innovation, technology, agile mindsets and money. However, when it comes to
managing change, Formula 1 teams excel in being agile to deliver superior
levels of performance and reliability. In comparison, DevOps teams strive to
deliver innovative applications for the business, but more often that not
struggle to make them fast or reliable once they are deployed in live
environments. This session takes a look at how the people, processes,
collaboration and tools behind a Formula 1 team can inform how we approach
DevOps, and how DevOps teams can better manage the performance and reliability
of their applications throughout the entire application lifecycle.
