What is your organization optimizing your platform for?

While many organizations optimize for speed or quality, they may be missing a crucial third option: optimizing for the developer experience.

In this episode of Technology Tangents, we are joined by special guest Michael Nygard. Michael is a seasoned technology leader who has worked as a senior technology leader for several global, Fortune 500 companies. He's also the award-winning, best-selling author of “Release It!” and “Release It! Second Edition”.

The conversation began with a focus on the need to radically simplify environments and the unintended consequences of how we build modern architectures, but then shifted to a discussion on the importance of creating a seamless developer experience to drive business value and competitiveness.

To discuss this thorny issue, we're interviewing Adam Floyd, an intellectual property attorney who has represented clients in all matters of intellectual property including patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret disputes. Adam has tried and handled cases before Federal district courts in over 20 states, the Federal Circuit, the ITC, PTAB, arbitrators, and mediators for plaintiffs and defendants of all sizes and types.
