Deliver Any Service Far More Effectively, Based on What Customers Really Want As service stacks grow more complex, it becomes even tougher to deliver on-demand IT services that meet customers'expectations for speed, consistency, reliability, security, privacy, and value. Layering on new cloud technologies, architectural approaches, or methodologies can aggravate the problem by widening the gap between what delivery teams think they're delivering and what customers actually experience. In Lean DevOps, technical leader Robert Benefield helps you escape this spiral, reverse bad habits, and regain the situational awareness you need to deliver the right services in the right way. Writing for delivery team members and their leaders, Benefield shows how to improve information flow throughout your organization, so you can move toward your customers'target outcomes. He identifies problems arising from traditional approaches to managing teams, debunks excuses often used to prevent progress, and offers realistic recommendations for everything from requirements to incentives. • Understand key dynamics that impact service delivery, and avoid focusing on the wrong issues • Give your delivery teams stronger abilities to learn and improve • Improve team maturity and implement prerequisites for effective use of automation and AI/ML • Optimize key service delivery elements, from instrumentation to queue masters and cycles • Organize and manage workflows more effectively • Handle governance associated with internal controls and external legal/regulatory requirements • Leverage the power of Lean and Mission Command to accelerate innovation, empower subordinates, and drive the outcomes you want

All You Need to Know, and Nothing You Don't, About Core Tools for Software Development Three of the core tools needed for modern software development are the Unix command line, a text editor, and version control with Git. But you don't need to learn'everything'about them, just how to use them efficiently to solve real problems. In Learn Enough Developer Tools to Be Dangerous, renowned instructor Michael Hartl teaches the specific concepts, skills, and approaches you need so you can learn to write apps, get hired, collaborate, and maybe even launch your own company. Even if you've never used (or even heard of) these tools before, Hartl helps you quickly build technical sophistication and master the lore you need to succeed. Focused exercises help you internalize what matters, without wasting time on details pros don't care about. Soon, it'll be like you were born knowing this stuff--and you'll be suddenly, seriously dangerous. Learn enough about... Running a terminal, entering and editing commands, and using man pages Manipulating and inspecting files: from basic copying to finding patterns Organizing files with directories Learning Minimum Viable Vim Basic and advanced editing techniques with editors like Atom and VS Code Using the human-readable Markdown language for writing quick documentation Formatting source code and writing executable scripts Getting started with Git and GitHub Using key Git workflows: commit, push, branch, merge, and more Collaborating on Git projects and resolving code conflicts Setting up dev environments: macOS, Linux, Windows, and cloud Michael Hartl's Learn Enough series includes books and video courses that focus on the most important parts of each subject, so you don't have to learn everything to get started--you just have to learn enough to be dangerous and solve technical problems yourself.

Youâ??ll also learn the impact observability has on organizational culture (and vice versa).You'll explore:How the concept of observability applies to managing software systemsThe value of practicing observability when delivering and managing complex cloud native applications and systemsThe impact observability has across the entire software development lifecycleHow and why different functional teams use observability with service-level objectives (SLOs)How to instrument your code to help future engineers understand the code you wrote todayHow to produce quality code for context-aware system debugging and maintenanceHow data-rich analytics can help you debug elusive issues quickly

EVOLVING SOFTWARE PROCESSES The book provides basic building blocks of evolution in software processes, such as DevOps, scaling agile process in GSD, in order to lay a solid foundation for successful and sustainable future processes. One might argue that there are already many books that include descriptions of software processes. The answer is “yes, but.” Becoming acquainted with existing software processes is not enough. It is tremendously important to understand the evolution and advancement in software processes so that developers appropriately address the problems, applications, and environments to which they are applied. Providing basic knowledge for these important tasks is the main goal of this book. Industry is in search of software process management capabilities. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic emphasizes the industry's need for software-specific process management capabilities. Most of today's products and services are based to a significant degree on software and are the results of largescale development programs. The success of such programs heavily depends on process management capabilities, because they typically require the coordination of hundreds or thousands of developers across different disciplines. Additionally, software and system development are usually distributed across geographical, cultural and temporal boundaries, which make the process management activities more challenging in the current pandemic situation. This book presents an extremely comprehensive overview of the evolution in software processes and provides a platform for practitioners, researchers and students to discuss the studies used for managing aspects of the software process, including managerial, organizational, economic and technical. It provides an opportunity to present empirical evidence, as well as proposes new techniques, tools, frameworks and approaches to maximize the significance of software process management. Audience The book will be used by practitioners, researchers, software engineers, and those in software process management, DevOps, agile and global software development.

For ensuring a software system's security, it is vital to keep up with changing security precautions, attacks, and mitigations. Although model-based development enables addressing security already at design-time, design models are often inconsistent with the implementation or among themselves. An additional burden are variants of software systems. To ensure security in this context, we present an approach based on continuous automated change propagation, allowing security experts to specify security requirements on the most suitable system representation. We automatically check all system representations against these requirements and provide security-preserving refactorings for preserving security compliance. For both, we show the application to variant-rich software systems. To support legacy systems, we allow to reverse-engineer variability-aware UML models and semi-automatically map existing design models to the implementation. Besides evaluations of the individual contributions, we demonstrate the approach in two open-source case studies, the iTrust electronics health records system and the Eclipse Secure Storage.
