Join us to reflect on learnings from the day.

Chapters

Full transcript

The complete talk, organized by section.

Gene Kim

And that concludes the talks for day two.

Today, I learned about the amazing transformation at Kessel Run and how it sparked a revolution inside of the US Air Force.

I learned about one of the coolest platforms to help developers be more productive and secure, resulting in one of the largest container platforms supporting tens of billions of dollars of revenue at a large hotel company.

I learned about how structure and dynamics can explain why work goes so badly wrong in so many organizations and provoke some thoughts on how to fix it. I learned about how to better diagnose problems that plague technology teams in large, complex organizations and what good treatment plans look like.

I learned about how to make friends with auditors and learned how IT audit has changed very much since I was an actual paying member at the Institute of Internal Auditors.

And I learned about a system of incident command that was created after a crippling outage and how the organization has benefited from it, and learned more about the theories of why it works.

So that concludes the programming for day two, and I am going to turn it over to my friend Jeff, and I look forward to seeing so many of you at the virtual happy hours tonight. Thank you.

Another amazing day of the DevOps Enterprise Summit is in the books.

Please, please, please get your session feedback in for the sessions you attended. Feedback is a gift. Sharing is caring. We really want to hear from you.

We have the session slides and the videos available. The videos of the plenary talks for today and yesterday are available now. The videos of all the breakout talks for all three days are also available, and the slides are available for download on Dropbox and GitHub.

And just like yesterday, we have another happy hour. To get the info for that, navigate to Network in the top-level menu or check out the happy hour channel in Slack.

Some of the IT Revolution authors are hosting Ask Me Anything sessions. Check out Slack to get the details on that.

And just like yesterday, we have a lesson that we can learn from donuts and croissants. When you are having your discussions tonight and you are engaging with other attendees in conversation, do not be closed off like a donut. Be open to new participation and new conversation, like a croissant.

So the lesson I leave you with is, come on, say it with me: don't be a donut.

Have a lot of fun at the happy hour tonight, and a reminder that we are back here tomorrow for opening remarks for the third and final day at 8:30 AM Pacific Time. I will see you soon.
