This morning we had our first in a series of special episodes of our Continuous Discussions (#c9d9) podcast with Gene Kim and the DevOps Enterprise Summit (DOES16) speakers.
We discussed the role of middle managers in leading DevOps adoption in the enterprise and scaling DevOps throughout your organization; How Conway's law (and the "Reverse Conway’s Law") comes into play in DevOps and in IT and developer productivity; What are some of the DevOps challenges our speakers and the conference programming committee identify, and some patterns for addressing them; the importance of community and learning from peers, and more.
