Introducing Delivery in Enterprises - July 12, 2016

Cadman has been working closely with Chef to introduce continuous delivery into an enterprise ecosystem. The company is using Chef Delivery within an existing Chef infrastructure, and has many of the normal issues that people run into : workflow changes, high-security requirements, and resistance to change. This talk will cover the journey from a bare, mostly sort-of CI, shop running a single Jenkins master to a company that has services running on Chef Delivery, and being continuously delivered. We will cover "Barriers to Adoption", "Solving the Soft Problems", "Delivery Truck? Oh Fudge", "The Road to Deployment Is Paved with Good Intentions" and other topics. At the end of this talk, you will be able to navigate the minefield of moving an organization from a traditional set of models to a more complete continuous delivery model. Not just from a theoretical standpoint, but by seeing examples of what went well and what went badly.
