REPLACE INFRASTRUCTURE

HOW TO RECONCILE TWO TRENDS?

WHAT DEVOPS AND SERVICES HAVE IN COMMON

1. speed/agility 2. end silos 3. focus on mission, not guarding territory 4. free to focus on things that matter:

1. security 2. governance 3. uptime 4. more focus on/responsiveness to market/customers 5. scalability

And yet….

they may still cancel each

other out.

THE FALLACY OF CONTROL

1. I NEED TO RUN ALL THINGS THAT ARE CORE.

2. I’VE RUN IT BEFORE, I UNDERSTAND IT, THEREFORE IT IS CORE.

3. WE WILL SIMPLY HIRE ROCKSTAR 10X DEVS TO RUN MY CORE INFRASTRUCTURE.

“Control” is code for “custom.”

Core

Not about using devops tools and approaches to control more surface area.

But using every tool, including APIs, to iterate faster on core business and abstracting away as much as possible.
