Set acceptance criteria for development and operations collaboration before work begins rather than after.
Building a Culture of Collaboration Between Development and Operations Teams
An applied course in development and operations collaboration built around the decisions practitioners actually face.
Course Overview
The documentation for development and operations collaboration is accurate only until the next release. Technical debt in operations collaboration is borrowed against future delivery capacity, at compound interest. Participants gain a realistic view of what the practice within technology and systems delivery costs and what it returns. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of development and operations collaboration and supervised application. The programme suits teams tackling this strand of technology and systems delivery together as readily as individuals attending alone. The course sets out a working method for operations collaboration that participants can apply the week they return. The professional literature on development and operations collaboration converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. Plans for operations collaboration often fail at the handover point between functions. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this part of technology and systems delivery sustainable.
