This step provides the feedback necessary for the team to understand aspects of the application that require additional work.<\/strong><\/p>\nA quick note about security: embedding secure coding and infrastructure practices into your DevOps pipeline ensures customers don\u2019t find issues before you. For infrastructure, ensure you maintain CIS patch levels. For code, track and manage security vulnerabilities and SQL injection issues. Include additional stories under the CI Epics for security practices.<\/p>\n
Putting It Into Practice<\/h2>\n
As a rule of thumb, put all your epics and stories on building out DevOps capabilities in your product backlog. 15-20 percent of your sprint need DevOps pipeline effort. Ensure your organization sets governance policies in place to support DevOps practices.<\/strong><\/p>\nLooking back on all the DevOps capabilities, you can see building out each one requires several sprints worth of effort. As DevOps pipelines evolve, remember, it could take a few years for things to materialize fully. If you implement DevOps for a greenfield scenario, you can setup DevOps capabilities reasonably quickly.<\/p>\n
If you work in an organization that already has a QA function and a CISO who runs the Security team, they are the groups you want to connect with first.<\/strong> In my experience, QA and Security love DevOps capabilities and are on-board from day one. The two groups you need on your side are Architecture and Change Management. These two teams are more likely to push back, especially if they can\u2019t see the value in their day-to-day effort. Get Architecture and Change Management on board, so the DevOps pipelines don\u2019t get stuck in red tape.<\/p>\nFinally<\/h2>\n
As we saw in parts one and two of this series, Release Planning targets all the work that needs to happen for the development and deployment of your software. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery capabilities are relatively straightforward, and you can adopt these in a couple of quarters. Continuous Testing takes the longest time to incorporate, but honestly, you won\u2019t gain true efficiency and scalability without test automation.<\/strong> Finally, Continuous Monitoring and Observability allows for feedback to close the loop.<\/p>\nI hope you enjoyed the series.
