Your team has embraced DevOps. You’re establishing new processes, adopting new tools, and forming a culture that emphasizes cross-functional collaboration. But you haven’t yet reached maximum velocity. There’s something missing, something that’s keeping your organization from truly becoming a highperforming DevOps machine.
Often that missing piece is measurement of data. Although measurement is one of the five pillars of the CALMS framework (Culture, Automation, Lean, Measurement, Sharing) coined by DevOps expert Jez Humble, it’s frequently neglected by DevOps teams in their push for increased velocity and autonomy. However, this can create huge problems, as accurate data is critical to the successful functioning of a DevOps team—from effective incident response to navigating microservices complexity and more.
This ebook is for all of the teams and organizations that have been dipping their toes in the water and are now ready to take the plunge into all things DevOps. It’s also aimed at those who are treading water without making the DevOps progress they need to achieve a true digital transformation.
By sharing real-world experiences—particularly lessons we’ve learned here at New Relic—we want to help you knock down your remaining barriers to DevOps success. From understanding how to set reliability goals to untangling the unique communications and development requirements of your microservices approach, we’re bringing together proven best practices that show you how to move faster and more effectively than ever before.
