In September 2024, I had the privilege of delivering a keynote at the Roche DevOps Conference in Poland. The topic: how to architect for continuous delivery. This is a subject close to my heart, because after more than two decades of working in software delivery, I keep seeing the same fundamental patterns that separate high-performing organizations from those that struggle.
When the CEO or CIO comes to you and says “We need AI in our development process,” the right response is not to start implementing immediately. The right response is to ask: why? In this talk at Conf42 Platform Engineering, I walk through the complete journey from identifying value stream bottlenecks to implementing AI-augmented DevOps on a real platform, including a live demo.
At the Conf42 DevSecOps 2024 conference, I presented my approach to architecting for continuous delivery. After more than 21 years at Zühlke, working across industries on DevOps transformations, I keep seeing the same fundamental problem: value streams broken by walls of confusion. In this talk, I walk through how organizations can move from project thinking to product thinking, build in quality and security from the start, architect for operability, and use platform engineering to scale it all.
At The DEVOPS Conference, I presented on a topic that has been at the heart of my work for over two decades: how to architect for continuous delivery. This talk covers the broken value stream I see in most companies, why product thinking matters more than project thinking, the science behind software delivery performance, and how platform engineering enables organizations to scale DevOps through digital factories.
