Value Stream Mapping can be briefly and simply described as […]

Lean thinking and its influence on the DevOps movement

In our previous posts, we have looked at some of the principles that apply to DevOps and how we can use them to guide us during our company’s transition to DevOps.   In this post, I’d like to take a step back and review how, from my point of view, Lean thinking has greatly influenced […]
