The cloud, the ability to treat infrastructure as code and use model based solutions to configure my environments helps eliminate one of the biggest developer frustrations over the years

I've heard #ContinuousDelivery is called the "New Agile." Can you share your thoughts on that?

Agree 100%. The focus has been on Agile "development" for a long time. E.g. are we doing scrum or pair programming, meeting standing up, etc

Steve Brodie

in some cases there were religious battles and we lost sight of the 1st principle of the Agile Manifesto. Focus o continuous delivery of valuable software to customers

John Furrier

Continuous Deliver to me is #devops goodness so I love this concept; The new agile makes sense; all new developers are native to devops and strong #opensource communities

Steve Brodie

With the publication of Jez Humble's book on "Continuous Delivery" recently, the focus has once again turned to the first principle, recognizing that value is not added until the software in the hands of the end users

Gene, you recently said, “We hope to create a community of practice for people who are driving large-scale transformation, so we can codify the patterns that are enabling their success." What do you mean by “codifying the patterns”?

Gene Kim

We'll document the common patterns among all the #devops transformations told at #DOES14, so others can replicate them in their own orgs.

@realgenekim love the "codifying the patterns" and/or open source the patterns idea. Very valuable and will be a great outcome for everyone if #DOES14 moves this along.

Nowadays it seems that every new startup is doing DevOps and CD. Its one thing to do this for one app. Entirely different to implement at a large financial institution

I'll ask the big question.. Does Amazon end up running the entire table in public cloud? Does anyone have a chance to compete?

AWS is kicking ass no doubt; Andy Jassy team is innovating very fast. Enterprise grade is big issue thought and many like IBM, VMware/Pivotal, HP, and Microsoft have a say there

AWS certainly has a big lead at the moment. Personally, I would not count out Microsoft Azure or Google's renewed push

it'll be hard for AWS to compete against a wide array of competitors by itself. Similar to the competition between iPhones and Androids
