COURSE OVERVIEW
Do you recognise this?
In order to keep the competition ahead, business is increasingly demanding shorter release cycles for new applications. Operations are often seen as a barrier with long bureaucratic controls and delays in supplying production systems. They benefit from stability. The development department is open to change and wants to deliver new functionality quickly and often.
DevOps is a growing approach to shorten lead-time, increase quality and improve collaboration. However, this requires both a change of mind-set and culture as well as learning new behaviours in Development (Dev) and Operations (Ops). Many companies struggle with the implementation of DevOps and changing the culture.
The DevOps simulation game is based on the book 'The Phoenix Project'. The organisation Unlimited Units is in trouble. Newspaper articles reveal the bad financial situation of the organisation. The only way to save not only the company but also to make it competitive and profitable is to start the project "The Phoenix Project".
