Patterns and Practices of a Successful DevOps Transformation
James Casey, VP of Partner Engineering | [email protected]
Chef: Leader in the DevOps Market
Born with the DevOps movement
Provider to web leaders and the enterprise
Understands DevOps success patterns
Distilled these patterns into the Chef platform
DevOps: The culture of innovating at velocity
• A technical and cultural movement with automation at its core
• A faster and safer way to deliver value to
customers
• A set of practices established by web innovators that are now being adopted by enterprises of all kinds.
“Together, Chef and Microsoft are empowering DevOps adoption in the enterprise with integrated technologies that improve
collaboration and speed software development.”
- Jeffrey Snover, Technical Fellow and Lead Architect for Windows Server, Microsoft
Challenges
Manual processes Weeks to setup new systems or software
Legacy systems and tools Inflexible, hard-to-change hardware and software
Organizational silos Unwieldy divisions of responsibility
Infrequent, large releases Fear of deployment due to risk to SLAs
Regulatory burdens Compliance bottleneck at the end of a project
Manual processes Weeks to setup new systems or software
Legacy systems and tools Inflexible, hard-to-change hardware and software
Organizational silos Unwieldy divisions of responsibility
Regulatory burdens Compliance bottleneck at the end of a project
Infrequent, large releases Fear of deployment due to risk to SLAs
Compliance at velocity Integration of compliance into the workflow using automated tests
Increased cooperation and trust Teams are aligned towards common goals
Dynamic infrastructure Easy migration to on-demand, cloud-based infrastructure and management of heterogeneous networks
Automation New systems and software updates deployed in minutes
Continuous delivery of infrastructure and applications Safe, rapid delivery of incremental value
Solutions to the challenges
The right way to DevOps
Infrastructure and Applications must be rapidly deployed in a verifiable, repeatable and safe manner
Cloud Automation Culture
+ +
Key Patterns:
Cloud – the path to dynamic infrastructure
Migrate applications to the cloud and support hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Automate the management of heterogeneous networks, including legacy systems.
• Provisioning and setting up environments • Dynamic scaling of compute resources• Migrating legacy workloads to the cloud• Multi cloud and hybrid cloud deployment• Support for heterogeneous environments
Automation
Turn infrastructure into code—infrastructure as code is versionable, testable and repeatable. Manual processes become a thing of the past.
• Automated, full-stack application policies• Package and service installation• Versionable, testable, repeatable workflow• Scalable application policies• Management of interdependencies across nodes
DevOps workflow & culture
Eliminate silos and lower the overhead of IT operations and service management by supporting DevOps culture. Build communities.
• Unified workflow for application and infrastructure• Integration with version control for development and operations
• Support for automated testing of infrastructure and applications
• Integration of security and compliance into product development
• Advanced, high-velocity workflow
The rewards?*

More deploymentsShip faster Faster MTR after issues More profits, market share, and productivityMarket cap goes up
Continuous delivery of infrastructure & apps
Implement a high-velocity software delivery pipeline that integrates application and infrastructure. Eliminate the risks incurred with large, infrequent releases.
• Rapid provisioning of development and test environments
• Ensure consistency and repeatability of environments• Unified pipeline for infrastructure, runtime
environments and applications• Support for large teams with multiple projects• Advanced, high-velocity workflow
Security and compliance at velocity
Regulatory compliance and security concerns are facts of life for every enterprise. At the same time, competitive pressures are increasing. Embed requirements into the software delivery pipeline. Makes compliance at velocity possible.
• Embed compliance into the software delivery pipeline• Automated checking of compliance criteria with
analytics• Structured review process during development• Discovery and analysis• Patch management and remediation

Phase 1: Beginning the Automation Journey
Local Development Code Collaboration Continuous Integration Chef Code Deployment
• Application deployment process defined
• Dev -> Test -> QA -> Prod environments consistent
• “Smoke” testing defined
• API-driven virtualization platform implemented
• Kickstart/JEOS templates defined
• Chef run lists defined as “packaged apps”
• Storage/Network automation implemented
• End-to-end testing defined
• End user interface driving “packaged app” deployment
• Application deployment pipelines complete from Dev -> Test -> QA -> Prod
• Entire software/infrastructure stack treated as one
Phase 2: The Road to DevOps
Application Deployment Virtualization as a Service Full Stack Automation Continuous Deployment
