                The State of DevOps report provides excellent insight through rigorous analysis of its wide reaching survey.

                I introduced the State of DevOps report back in episode 13 and in this episode I take a look at the 2021 edition.

                Listen to this episode if you are looking for the justification "why" you invest in the effort and disruption that DevOps requires.  Or listen to this episode to understand "how" the practices can help you produce better outcomes from software development.

              • #119: Shifting Left

                Long term listeners will have heard me use the term "Shift Left" - but what does that mean?

                In this episode, I take a deeper dive into the "Shift Left" principal, why modern software development advocates it, and common places to find it happening.

              • #118: Running a bath - a deeper dive into feedback

                Many of my episode talk about an experimental mindset - have a hypnosis, try something, act on the feedback.

                The timeliness and quality of the feedback has real impact on our outcomes.  And I illustrate this in this episode through the act of providing our customer the perfect bath.

              • #117: Robotic Process Automation

                What is Robotic Process Automation (RPA)?

                Even with over 30 years experience, it was a new term to me when I same across it in the Tech Pro Unicorn episode (#114).  Thus I wanted to investigate and share my understanding - and indeed, unexpected personal history.

              • #116: Low Code and No Code

                What is Low Code?  What is No Code?  How can they help us?

                I touched on this subject during the Tech Pro Unicorn episode (#114), but had a lot more notes than could be covered - thus in this episode, I take a deeper dive.
