APPENDIXCase Study: Example DevOps Adoption Roadmap

This appendix captures a DevOps adoption roadmap that was developed for a large, multinational financial services organization. Certain details have been modified to make the roadmap more generic and to remove any company-specific references. All names have, of course, been removed, and specific geographical details have been obfuscated to protect the innocent. This particular roadmap was selected because of its broad application to DevOps adoption situations, across a range of industries and organization sizes. Barring the customer-specific situations that have been removed or generalized, this client presented a set of business drivers, their current state of maturity, and constraints—technical, organizational, and financial—that are very common.

The goal here is to present a very broad, relatable, exemplar roadmap that can serve as a template for your organization. Your mileage will vary, because there is not, and never will be, a one-size-fits-all adoption roadmap. Some very important plays discussed in this book do not apply here. My recommendation to you is to look at this as a case study of how to start from a business driver and current state and select the right set of DevOps plays to develop a similar roadmap for your organization to get to the end state you want.
