Visited Bangalore #TargetDojo with @pivotal co-worker @sajiainikkal to talk devops with @pruthi_anuj's team! #dotgt
Always inspired by @TheDesktophero's Ignites. Learning, sharing, caring: this is how we do that devops thing. #dotgt
Three lucky people at #dotgt are getting #leanenterprise books both signed and slightly _adjusted_ by @jezhumble.
Talking about successes on @hmmickman's team is more useful than pointing to what "unicorns" do. @kbehrens at #dotgt
Good insights into change (where "influence is the currency") from @TonyNotto and @kbehrens at #dotgt.
Operate at speed with velocity. Not #velocityconf - actual speed. @mfdii #dotgt (I'd say the conference also helps!)
On pets vs cattle, @mfdii explains ephemeral infrastructure: it comes and goes, doesn't go in your asset list. #dotgt
"Where's Erlang?" I heckled, and @jezhumble wants to know where @mfdii thinks COBOL is. :) #dotgt
Next up: some guy from Ohio not talking about goats. @mfdii #dotgt
"We delivered our first API to production before we even had funding for our team." @greg_larson #dotgt
Getting ideas from @matt_helgen at #dotgt about what else we could put into graphite. Nifty!
Kicking off ignites at #dotgt, @lilydalekid talks about Target's "club ops" retreat. (tropical, not clubbing ops)
"Treat your internal customers with the same consideration as those paying you; they _are_ paying, with time & attention." @jezhumble #dotgt
Blaming a person instead of examining surrounding conditions means you haven't actually conducted an investigation at all. @jezhumble #dotgt
"@allspaw is like PDF as a service." @jezhumble #dotgt
"Risk management theater: a performance giving the impression you're managing risk while you're actually making it worse." @jezhumble #dotgt
"The job of the change management process is to make sure nothing ever changes." -- @jezhumble (The #dotgt crowd laughed a knowing laugh.)
The "enterprise", according to @jezhumble, relies heavily on the machine that goes "ping". #dotgt
Listening to @hmmickman and @RossClanton kicking off #dotgt - DevOps at Target!
