Episode Notes

In this episode of Redefining CyberSecurity on the ITSPmagazine Podcast Network, host Sean Martin engages in an insightful conversation with Gene Kim, co-author of "Wiring the Winning Organization". The discussion revolves around the transformative concept of 'Shifting Left' in DevOps, a strategy that has allowed tech giants like Amazon to achieve a staggering 136,000 deployments per day.

Kim likens this breakthrough to a collaborative effort between developers and operators, comparing it to the teamwork required to move a couch. He also explores the crucial role of information security in this process, underlining the necessity for security to equip developers with the tools to work independently, thereby serving as the first line of defense. Don't let security sit on the couch while you're trying to move it!

The conversation transitions into an exploration of the three mechanisms of performance: slowification, simplification, and amplification. Kim uses relatable real-life examples to elucidate these concepts, emphasizing the importance of timely and accurate information for effective decision-making and problem-solving. The more you know up front, the better off you'll be.

Drawing on his extensive work on the state of DevOps research, Kim discusses the predictors of high performance and how these principles apply to DevOps. He also points to the growing trend of specialization within DevOps and the emerging need for 'platform engineering,' a system that enables developers to focus on solving business problems while specialists handle the complex technical aspects.

This episode provides listeners with a deeper understanding of the evolution and future of DevOps, the importance of information security, and how these principles can be applied to enhance overall security programs. It also serves as an introduction to the Gene co-authored with Steven J. Spear. Be sure to listen to the podcast that Marco Ciappelli had with Spear on his Redefining Society Podcast.
