The Consumerisation Of Enterprise IT


The Consumerisation Of Enterprise IT

Forrester Research Inc., Software Must Enrich Your Brand, February, 2014:

“The increased use and visibility of software outside of the four walls of the enterprise will

require firms to fundamentally rethink how they develop and manage their digital assets.

This is not your father’s IT with a release every three years.”


Waterfall approach to software delivery where a more iterative, agile

approach is needed

High priority on robustness and stability but lower priority placed on speed

and agility

Siloed and process driven in approach rather than a focus on the business

goals of software

Delivers a relatively slow pace of change relative to business needs

Many Enterprises Are Unprepared….

Justin Vaughan-Brown

We need images for this slide more than text. How is this slide different to the DevOps transformation in enterprise one? Needs some thought re how they cover different topics - this is more re why enterprise isn't geared up/match fit to respond, to sluggish etc, used to a few releases a year.


Slow cycle times

Big, heavyweight, risky, releases

Delayed testing cycles and poor quality observed in production

Inefficient working and inflexible manual processes

Bottlenecks and inconsistencies in environments

Reduced capability for innovation

Dissatisfaction by the business & Shadow IT

Lost opportunity and market share

Common Symptoms….


DevOps is about breaking down the Development & Operations Siloand getting both focused on the business goals of software

What Is DevOps?


Software Developer

“I want change”“I want to get my features released!”

“I want to use the latest tools!”“I want operations to get out of the way!”

1 – Turn IT Back Into Competitive Advantage


DevOps solves the ‘Agility/Stability’ paradox

Going fast whilst retaining control, governance, security

2 – Retain A Rigorous, Professional Approach To IT


3 – Adopt A Scientific, Data Driven Approach To Product Development

Reduced Cycle Times Enable:

Easily test ideas in a ‘lean startup’ style

Capture data, incorporate it into ongoing product development

Increase scope for innovation and building products that the market

ultimately wants


Platforms are increasingly controlled through APIs – e.g. virtualisation, cloud and software defined networking

Adopt an elastic, agile, scalable approach to infrastructure

Provisioning and automated infrastructure allows you to gain competitive advantage through infrastructure and operations
