discretion.
• Information regarding potential future products is intended to outline our general productdirection and itshould notbe relied on in
making a purchasing decision.
• The information mentioned regarding potential future products is nota commitment, promise,or legal obligation to deliver any
material,code or functionality.Information aboutpotentialfuture products may notbe incorporated into any contract.
• The development,release,and timing ofany future features or functionality described for our products remains atour sole discretion.
• Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment.The actual
throughputor performance thatany user will experience willvary depending upon many factors,including considerations such as the
amountofmultiprogramming in the user’s job stream,the I/O configuration,the storage configuration,and the workload processed.
Therefore,no assurance can be given thatan individual user willachieveresults similar to those stated here.

Differing Assumptions: Cloud Ready v Cloud Native
• Industrialized Core (Cloud Ready) Assumptions
– The infrastructure provides my NFR’s.
– The infrastructure is stable.
– The components of my application are co-located.
– My ops team controls the production servers.
– If a disaster happens, it’s someone else’s responsibility to fix it.
• Innovation Edge (Cloud Native) Assumptions
– My application and my services provide my NFR’s.
– The infrastructure is constantly changing (elastic).
– My application components may be globally distributed.
– As a Dev/Ops team member I control the production servers.
– If a disaster happens, it’s my responsibility to make sure my app stays up.
Choosing one or the other has an effect on your
team composition and roles

3. Scaling for Enterprise Value

Where does DevOps Adoption Start?
ProductionDevelop Build Test DeployPlan
By the end of 2015, 75% of large organizations are
expected to have adopted agile DevOps practices (IDC)
Agile Adoption
Water-SCRUM-fall

Creating a ‘Lean’ Delivery Pipeline
• Reduce Batch size
• Integrated Delivery Pipeline
• Agile Product Management
• ‘Continuous Funding’
• Right Architecture
• Continuous Improvement
1 per min 1 per min
4 per min 1 per min
4 per min 4 per min

‘Shift Left’ Ops Engagement
• Deploying Infrastructure is the biggest
bottleneck for the Delivery Pipeline
– Extending the Agile Manifesto: Working software
over comprehensive documentation -> Working
software (in Production or production-like
environment) over comprehensive documentation
• Software Defined Environments to enable
Environment Standardization with pre-defined
‘Patterns’
– Servers are ‘Cattle’, not ‘Pets’
• Practitioner self-service access to
environments
• Engage Operations early - One Team

Rapidly deploy application environments in 3 simple steps
Provide portability across heterogeneous
virtual datacenter, private and public
clouds
3. Portable across different
virtualized infrastructure
Assemble multi-tier application environments
and define auto-scaling policies to meet
operational needs.
2. Assemble multi-tier and scalable
environment blueprints

Hybrid Cloud Deployments through a Single Point of Control
IBM Bluemix

IBM Cloud Orchestrator
IBM PureApplication System
Manage application deployment across dev, test,
and production spanning multiple clouds
Key Points:
• Enable full stack deployments (OS, patterns
and applications) across hybrid cloud
applications
• Establish common toolchain framework with
plug points to support continuous delivery

The Twelve-Factor App
• A set of best practices for creating applications
– Implementing, deploying, monitoring, and managing
• Typical modern applications
– Deployed in the cloud
– Accessible as web applications that deliver software-as-a-service
• Can be applied to any application
– Implemented in any programming language
– Using any backing services (database, messaging, caching, etc.)
• Addresses common problems
– The dynamics of the organic growth of an app over time
– The dynamics of collaboration between developers
– Avoiding the cost of software erosion
– Systemic problems in modern application development
• Provides a shared vocabulary for addressing these problems
