The Phoenix Project: A Novel About IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win

de Gene Kim, Kevin Behr et George Spafford (éd. de 2013)

Quatrième de couverture

Bill is an IT manager at Parts Unlimited. It's Tuesday morning and on his drive into the office, Bill gets a call from the CEO. The company's new IT initiative, code named Phoenix Project, is critical to the future of Parts Unlimited, but the project is massively over budget and very late. The CEO wants Bill to report directly to him and fix the mess in ninety days or else Bill's entire department will be outsourced. With the help of a prospective board member and his mysterious philosophy of The Three Ways, Bill starts to see that IT work has more in common with manufacturing plant work than he ever imagined. With the clock ticking, Bill must organize work flow streamline interdepartmental communications, and effectively serve the other business functions at Parts Unlimited. In a fast-paced and entertaining style, three luminaries of the DevOps movement deliver a story that anyone who works in IT will recognize. Readers will not only learn how to improve their own IT organizations, they'll never view IT the same way again.

Mon commentaire

Suivant le même principe que "The Goal", ce livre de fiction nous fait découvrir la théorie des contraintes dans un contexte de société technologique. Il introduit des principes du lean et ouvre la porte au rapprochement des devs et des ops pour former la culture de devops.
