State of DevOps - A Continuous Improvement Story
For nearly a decade, the DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) project has studied the behaviors of thousands of software development teams and discovered the key capabilities that reliably predict success. DORA has consistently found that not only do top performers lead their industries in both release velocity and service reliability, they achieve better business outcomes and have more satisfied employees.In this session, we’ll unpack the research findings and outline key steps your team can take toward continuous improvement.We will couple these findings with stories "from the field" about how teams are putting these ideas into practice.
