There is a great new book coming out called the Kitty Hawk Venture. In the vein of Gene Kim's The Phoenix Project, Kitty Hawk is also a novel, rather than your typical business text. It is the story of a fictional company in the airline industry, but is based on a true story. It is due out in July but you can pre-order on Amazon now: https://www.amazon.com/Kitty-Hawk-Venture-Continuous-Delivery/dp/1484236602

In our continuing series of "The CEO's View" with Derek Langone of XebiaLabs we take a bit of a deep dive into DevSecOps and how it has risen to the top of the list in Derek's conversations with organizations around the world. Great discussion with some keen insights, enjoy!
