Introducing DevOps in a large enterprise is difficult. But wait, why do we want to introduce DevOps in the first place? Good question.

## The Full Story

In this talk, I answer the question and show you what happens when you introduce DevOps, and what does not happen.

## What We Changed

I show you how we:

- **Changed the CI pipeline** to enable faster, more reliable builds
- **Changed the architecture** to support continuous delivery
- **Scaled up delivery** from 1 team to 7 teams
- **Automated the deployment** for consistent, repeatable releases
- **Automated the testing** across all levels
- **Improved operations** with better monitoring and incident response
- **Started scanning for security issues** as part of the pipeline
- **Analyzed performance issues** proactively
- **Monitored the application** end-to-end
- **Changed the culture** to support collaboration and continuous improvement

A real-world experience report, with all the successes and lessons learned along the way.
