The DevOps Handbook

The practical companion to The Phoenix Project, organised around the three ways of flow, feedback and continual learning. The flow section covers deployment pipelines, automated testing, low risk release patterns and the architecture that lets teams deploy independently of each other. The feedback section covers telemetry, monitoring, peer review and the safe handling of production problems, and the learning section covers blameless post mortems, dedicated improvement work, and turning a local discovery into a global improvement. The second edition adds material on security in the pipeline and on the relationship between delivery practice and organisational structure. Case studies from a wide range of companies sit alongside each practice.
