DevOps is on everyone's lips. The combination of agile development approaches such as Scrum, Kanban, Extreme Programming or others with future-proof service management approaches seems to be the guarantee for success for modern IT organizations.

Is this just the next fad in IT or is there actual optimization potential here and if so, what are the prerequisites and framework conditions that are important for this?

The author, a proven expert for agile methods and DevOps, shows where DevOps can be used beneficially and which techniques and methods are target-oriented. This includes approaches such as Continuous Delivery as well as the concept of anti-fragility or the integration of approaches from Lean Thinking.

This book is aimed at newcomers to the subject who want to gain a good overview and a basis for decision-making with little effort.
