DOES15 CrowdChat Strikes a Chord with the DevOps Community!

It’s not often we get the opportunity to pull together some of the best minds in the software development/delivery community to talk about DevOps and the IT value stream.
But today, DevOps Enterprise Summit speakers and committee members, along with Gene Kim and CloudBees, hosted a live social chat - via CrowdChat - that brought the community together to talk all things DevOps.
I had the pleasure of joinnig this great discussion - where we shared practical tips/considerations for accelerating large scale IT transformations, along with best practices to keep in mind as you embark on your own DevOps journey.
With more than 400 posts in just one hour, it’s clear that DevOps is top of mind as the current state of enterprise IT challenges and opportunities continues to unfold.
Some highlights from this morning's CrowdChat include:

• Gene Kim (@RealGeneKim ) asked the most voted/answered question which was: “What do you think is most underappreciated about #DevOps in large, complex organizations?”

• John Willis (@botchagalupe ) was voted the CrowdCaptain of the #DOES15 CrowdChat for having the most up-votes to his responses during the conversation

  Congrats to @botchagalupe for getting today's #DOES15 CrowdCaptain https://t.co/pTemgrC0f3 #devops
