• “A maturity model is a tool that Introducing maturity models helps people assess the current effectiveness of a person or group and supports figuring out what capabilities they need to acquire next in order to improve their performance. • In many circles maturity models have gained a bad reputation, but although they can easily be misused, in proper hands they can be helpful.” - • Martin Fowler @williammanning @jbaruch #DevOpsWorld jfrog.com/shownotes

Account for different teams’ priorities @williammanning @jbaruch #DevOpsWorld jfrog.com/shownotes
Model definition example System config as Code The infrastructure configuration is managed as code - e.g. no manual processes for configuring/setting up/ infrastructure. Differentiating: Infrastructure operates without any manual processes. All changes to the infrastructure or infrastructure capabilities are done through automation and policy only. Complete: Infrastructure operates without any manual processes. Some infrequent administrative activities may be initiated manually (although the activities themselves must be automated). Partial (Most): Infrastructure operates without any manual processes. Some infrequent administrative activities may be manual, pending automation. Partial (Much): Infrastructure operates with significant automation. Some processes still manual; pending automation. Partial (Some): Infrastructure requires significant care and feeding. Many processes still manual; pending automation. No Support: While some functions may be automated, they are generally kicked-off manually; and many functions are still fully manual. Large backlog of automation items. @williammanning @jbaruch #DevOpsWorld jfrog.com/shownotes
Applying maturity models: DOs and DONT’s Only use primary colors Involve your teams in the model definition Let team self assess first and then assess together Partner with forward looking teams first Remember being at 100% is not a goal the model has to have a stretch goal Evolve the model from time to time And …. @williammanning @jbaruch #DevOpsWorld jfrog.com/shownotes

In many DevOps talks, you see a speaker from a renowned tech company stand up and describe a perfect utopia of an environment. You look at the perfect environment and dedicated hordes of senior engineers they describe, and you despair of ever getting to that point. Your environment looks nothing like that.
Surprise– their environment doesn’t really look like that either! In this talk, a speaker from an unnamed tech unicorn describes their amazing environment– and then what they just said gets translated from “thought leader” into plain English for you by an official translator. Stop feeling sad– everything is secretly terrible!
