  1. DevOps and Digital Transformation - Leadership Characteristics & Key Metrics

  2. Introduction Gartner predicts that through 2022, 75% of DevOps initiatives will fail to meet expectations due to issues around organizational learning and change. Another study suggested that the DevOps market is expected to reach $6.6 billion in the same year. DevOps is not a mere trendy buzzword anymore. It is expected to become the standard way of software development in each organization in the coming future as it transitions from the phase of early adoption to early majority uptake. As leaders realize the need to fundamentally transform the way their businesses operate and to keep customer-centricity at the core of their initiatives, DevOps adoption is expected to gain further momentum this year and beyond.

  3. The key characteristics of Quality Engineering & DevOps leaders The pace of change around us has accelerated many-folds with the ongoing pandemic. What was supposed to be a 4-year transformation plan for several organizations was realized in the span of three months. While keeping up with the speed of change, it is important that the leaders do not fall into a rut and put significant focus on innovation as well. Therefore, quality engineering and DevOps leaders need to embrace a holistic point of view while navigating the digital transformation or DevOps transformation. Jermaine suggests four key characteristics that these leaders should embrace – “One, lead with confidence. Confidence is the key to know that innovation and change are out there, and you need to embrace it. Two, as a QE leader, you need to be willing to adapt and learn and grow. So, the key thing there is just being flexible to be able to adapt, learn, and grow so that you can evolve as a leader. Three, be willing to challenge your previous exceptions and understandings. Things may not be the status quo. So, you’ll have to certainly challenge your previous assumptions and understandings of what you thought you knew. And then finally, you need to be open to failing. But the key with failing in this space is failing and failing very fast.”

  4. CI/CD/CT pipeline for failing fast DevOps enables automation and augments and accelerates software delivery and innovation. With a Continuous Integration & Continuous Deployment pipeline, coupled with a continuous testing feedback loop, DevOps offers the scope to fail fast, but also to get up and bounce back faster.
