From system performance to application metrics, we continue to further our understanding of what to monitor, why, and how to present it appropriately to the various audiences who need to act on this information. Yet there are things across our environment that we agree we can’t measure because they are unquantifiable. That doesn’t mean that there is zero signal to be analyzed and monitored. We can look at open source software that is in wide use, yet becomes stale and unusable after years due to the atrophy of maintainers keeping it up to date with security and integrations with other software, or implementation of new features that keep it useful. How do you measure the health of your current implemented software solutions so that you know when to start planning change, or committing intentional time to a project? In this talk, I’ll tackle these questions in addition to sharing other observations about monitoring within our environments with the goal of inspiring others to examine available signals, their impact, and the value of monitoring.]]>

Are you trying to build cookbooks within your organization but are unclear about how to get your coworkers involved? Maybe you've learned the Chef primitives and architecture but you're not sure how to distill that knowledge into patterns that others can follow? In this collaborative workshop, we will spend the day working together to craft a community cookbook from scratch using both Chef and community resources. In the process, we'll learn some key patterns of DevOps practices.]]>

DevOps does not exist in a vacuum; it rests on a social structure and culture that are intertwined. Hierarchies within organizations, industry connections, and globalization all influence culture. At the same time, culture influences social structure and impacts its effectiveness. To complicate matters even more, the tools we use have an overarching influence. Tools can affect our behavior, how we share knowledge, and our organizational hierarchies. Often, a particular technology is presented as a “best practice” or as the right way to solve a problem. How do we resolve the cognitive dissonance that arises when the “correct” tool is no longer suited to our current environment? As technology increasingly shapes how we work, how do we determine what technologies to adopt to help effect the changes we want? In this webinar, Chef Software Engineer Jennifer Davis will help you to frame the choices available to you, identify the weaknesses in your environment that your current tools disguise, and be more effective and deliberate with the tools used in your organization.

DevOps does not exist in a vacuum; social structure and culture are inherently intertwined. The hierarchies within organizations, industry connections, and globalization influence culture. Culture influences social structures, impacting how effective some structures are in an environment with a specific culture. Tools can play a large part in instilling behaviors, automation of systems, sharing knowledge, and changing organizational hierarchies. Often technology choices are framed as 'best practices' or the right way to solve a problem. How do we resolve the cognitive dissonance that arrises from this fixed mindset, having chosen the best practice and the need to handle change as problems evolve? As technology accelerates our work, how do we determine what tools and technology to adopt to help effect the right change? This talk will help you frame the choices available to you, identify the fragility in your environment disguised by tools now, and to be more effective and deliberate with technology in your organization.]]>

Organizational folklore can be a very powerful force for instilling or perpetuating behavior, systems, and culture within an organization.

Incremental change and release often is the new mantra. A team of one may handle the operability implementation for an application. Work arounds are done to get things out the door “on time” to meet the agile requirements. This person is in the center of changes ensuring that monitoring, configuration, and service expectations are coordinated. As the velocity of change increases, this single point of failure leads to slow downs. The operations engineer is viewed as the “hero” due to working late nights or weekends to keep the service running as needed. This false hero role is not sustainable and creates a rigid environment of change aversion. In this talk, I will describe paths to supporting complex project deployment and configuration from manual heroics to minimal intervention. I will describe tools but the concepts will be applicable regardless of environment. This is not a one size fit all solution but guidelines presented should help shape direction towards success.]]>
