Enterprise DevOps Skills Report - how team boundaries affect job roles
The DevOps Institute has published the Enterprise DevOps Skills Report 2019 covering the in-demand skills for software development in enterprises around the world.
The original DevOps Team Topologies - which ultimately led to our Team Topologies book - are mentioned in the report in the context of different kinds of teams to help make DevOps work.
Why we wrote the Team Topologies book
The book Team Topologies has been 5 or 6 years in the making. How did we (Manuel and I) come to write to book and why?
…
In our travels around the world helping organizations with software delivery practices, we noticed that organizations needed guidance on how to evolve team interactions. We also saw that in many organizations the boundaries between teams are very unclear: people were asking “why are we spending so much time working with that other team?” or “why is this service so difficult to use?” - very often there was little clarity about the purpose and duration of team-to-team interactions.
Update on the Team Topologies book - now undergoing Peer Review
Our forthcoming book - Team Topologies: organizing business and technology teams for fast flow - is progressing well. We’re thrilled to be working with the amazing folks at IT Revolution Press, the home of books like The Phoenix Project, The DevOps Handbook, and Accelerate. The expected publication date is later in 2019.
