Using DevOps to Speed Up Time to Market

О курсе

This course discusses key concepts such as DevOps time to market, continuous delivery, continuous integration, and fast feedback loops. You'll learn practical ways to speed software delivery by building quality in, automating repetitive work, using configuration management and version control, and creating smaller, safer releases. The course also covers value stream mapping, continuous flow, MVP thinking, feature flags, and key metrics such as lead time, deployment frequency, mean time to restore, and change fail percentage. It is designed for learners who want a practical introduction to removing bottlenecks, improving release flow, and showing that faster delivery can also support higher quality. By the end of this course, you'll be able to: - Explain how faster feedback loops improve development speed, learning, and decision-making. - Describe the core principles of continuous delivery, including built-in quality, small batches, automation, continuous improvement, and shared responsibility. - Identify how comprehensive configuration management and version control support reliable, repeatable releases. - Explain how continuous integration, trunk-based work, and continuous testing reduce rework and speed feedback. - Use value stream mapping to identify bottlenecks, compare lead time and cycle time, and improve flow. - Describe how MVPs, feature flags, and small-batch delivery lower deployment risk and support learning. - Interpret speed and stability metrics such as deployment frequency, lead time, mean time to restore, and change fail percentage. - Explain why speed does not have to reduce quality when teams build quality into the delivery process.
