Food for thought with different look at how information technology integrates with business needs and goals. The use of the novel as a teaching tool is a good idea. This book is definitely worth a read. ( ) This one is rather interesting book. On one hand it tries to show how inter-departmental cooperation, especially between IT services and between IT and actual business can prove highly valuable and can speed up and stream-line the main business processes and business-supportive projects/processes. On the other hand for the dramatic purpose, issues that take significant amount of time in real life are shortened to a ridiculous short time-spans and some teams are shown as very slow-movers and not very capable. Some IT departments are shown as especially ... troublesome. So I understand some of the reactions to the book (I recognized myself in several characters). In my opinion what this book does very good is to show what exactly DevOps is - improvement in overall organizational thinking and planning, striving to achieve more in smaller steps [remember those many sayings like brick-by-brick-you-get-a-house]. If everyone is working together, if everyone is motivated and aims for the same - success of the core business - everything can be achieved. All in all very interesting book that tries [in form of a fiction instead of academic or professional-literature way] to give insights to the readers how things can be much easier achieved through DevOps approach. And funny thing is that all the lections presented are applicable everywhere - not just to IT. Recommended to everyone interested in organizational and planning issues. This was a real slog. The book leans heavily on stereotypes and cliches, and talks a lot about (awful) people's (awful) feelings, and needed a lot more editing. There are interesting ideas in there, but I think I would've been better off just reading the appendices (or maybe the DevOps Handbook, which is up next). sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Bill, an IT manager at Parts Unlimited, has been, tasked with taking on a project critical to the future of the business, code named Phoenix Project. But, the project is massively over budget and behind schedule. The CEO demands Bill must fix the mess in ninety days or else Bill's entire department will be outsourced. With the help of a prospective board member and his mysterious philosophy of The Three Ways, Bill starts to see that IT work has more in common with a manufacturing plant work than he ever imagined. With the clock ticking, Bill must organize workflow streamline interdepartmental communications, and effectively serve the other business functions at Parts Unlimited. In a fast-paced and entertaining style, three luminaries of the DevOps movement deliver a story that anyone who works in IT will recognize. Readers will not only learn how to improve their own IT organizations, they'll never view IT the same way again. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
