DevOps issues can be a thorny subject. The coming together in harmony of Dev (developer) and Ops (operations) represents an arranged marriage of sorts that, for some, will never have a ‘happily ever after’ ending as both parties ultimately grapple with irreconcilable differences. But despite the naysayers, the very existence of DevOps as a portmanteau […]

A corporate axiom is changing, shifting from “Big eats small” to “Fast eats slow.” But change doesn’t happen overnight. While Agile and lean methods continue to chip away at the status quo, making gains and increasingly moving beyond pockets of teams to the portfolio and then enterprise-wide adoption levels, waterfall approaches to delivery persist. Rumors […]

Had enough change yet? It is almost amusing that I and some other tech people had that conversation a decade ago, and since then, nothing has slowed down. Our conclusion was that, for the near future, change would be constant. That conclusion was right; I’d have to ping everyone else to see what they think, […]

You can’t control the pace of change; instead, consider that we are in a process of reinvention—both with regard to the way organizations use technology and how vendors position their offerings. At the same time, it’s never been more important for IT organizations to have complete visibility into the way technology is used from both […]

Have you ever thought about the history of incident management? If you’re an SRE, you might be so caught up in the day-to-day work of managing reliability and responding to incidents that you never take time to step back and reflect on the evolution of your role and your responsibilities. And that’s a shame because […]

How fast is real-time? According to Robert Miller’s 1968 seminal study on human-computer interaction, we perceive a response time of 100 milliseconds or less as instantaneous. This is much quicker than the average human reaction time, which one online test clocks at 273 milliseconds. Nowadays, customer-facing applications need to respond in as close to real-time […]

DevOps culture and rapid cloud adoption mean developers are shipping code faster than ever and, in many cases, security teams struggle to keep up. To avoid relegating security to afterthought status, organizations must shift left and adopt a developer-first approach to application security (AppSec). Organizations that depend on software development need a solution that accomplishes […]
