- 23. Where do you start: DevOps Adoption Roadmap What am I trying to achieve? • Think through business-level drivers for improvement • Align vision and pains to common business drivers across silos • Look across silos, not just within the team, for improvements Where am I currently? • What do you measure and currently achieve • What don’t you measure, but should to improve • What practices are well scaled vs. incubating • Refine objectives to particular practice areas Where are my bottlenecks and priorities? • Business-level drivers expose practice gaps across silos • Focusing outside of the bottleneck limits overall improvement • It’s not just about tools, its about People, Practices, Technology, and information Step1Step2Step3 Current Practice Assessment Objective & Prioritized Capabilities Business Goal Determination Determine Activities Objective How should I plan my practice improvement? Step4 • Identify improvements to skills, processes, and tools to achieve desired outcome • Roadmap activity to define actionable plan • Target improvements which get the best bang for the buck Roadmap February 26, 2014 22
- 24. Understanding Maturity Levels Practiced Some teams exercise activities associated with the practice, inconsistently. No enterprise standards defined. Automation may be in place but without consistent usage models. Consistent Enterprise standards for practice are defined. Some teams exercise activities associated with the practice and follow the standards. No core team or COE to assist with practice adoption. Automation, if used, follows enterprise standards. Reliable Mechanisms exist to assist adoption and ensure that standards are being followed. Core team of mentors available to assist in adoption. Scaled Institutionalized adoption across the enterprise. COE is a matured and integral part of continuous improvement and enablement. Practices are mainstreamed across the enterprise. Feedback process in place to improve the standards. Specific maturity levels are defined by how well an organization can perform practices. The levels look at consistency, standardization, usage models, defined practices, mentor team or center of excellence, automation, continuous improvement and organizational or technical change management.
