Mapping the #DevSecOps Landscape 2020 Survey Results from @GitLab is guiding us towards best practices and trends in #softwareEngineering #devOps | WHY IT MATTERS: Digital Transformation | Scoop.it

This report offers an inside look at how DevOps practitioners around the world tackle the same challenges you face. With a mix of hard data and real stories, we hope you’ll find wisdom and encouragement. No one ever said DevOps was easy — not even GitLab. But it is clear that a mix of the right tools, culture, collaboration, and a willingness to try and fail will move software development teams forward.

Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: survey result from GitLab about devOps practices. Take numbers and % with HUGE grain of salt as I don't feel they represent the "real world" as they are skewed toward smaller organizations and (relatively) early adopters. Nevertheless, the tools and the practices and the trends should be looked at seriously in any organization. I know it will shape how I do things for le panier bleu... ;-)

We are in the midst of an open source renaissance. But how do you turn an open source project into a business? a16z's Peter Levine and Jennifer Li cover the complete go-to-market from community management to enterprise sales.

Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: as a software engineer in the 1980s, open source was considered a research project. Now it has become real business and this post details why and how you should go about building a real company with your software code open sourced. With ML/AI growing, the value lies more in the data than the code, so the open source may still have some growth ahead.
