“3 Ways” of DevOps

• The First Way: Systems Thinking emphasizes the performance of the entire system as opposed to the performance of a specific silo of work or department

• The Second Way is about creating and amplifying the right to left feedback loops

• The Third Way is about creating a culture that fosters both continual experimentation, taking risks and learning from failure; and understanding the repetition and practice is the prerequisite to mastery.


Work in Small Batches Getting Feedback Fast – FAIL FAST

• Faster Feedback

– Validate assumptions

• Solve Problems Quickly

– Easier to find & fix defects

• Reduce Overhead –Organizations get better at things they

do frequently

• Reduce Risk

Get regular validation on the production readiness

of your application

Breaking the Bottlenecks In The Flow

1. Environment Creation

2. Code Deployment

3. Test setup and run

4. Overly tight architecture

5. Development

6. Product Management

Leading A DevOps Transformation: Lessons Learned – Gene Kim


Technical Debt

Every time we take a “short cut” we create technical debt:

• Manually configure an environment

• Create code without automated tests

• Manually do deployment

Technical debt is what you feel the next time you want to make a change Gene Kim – Author The Phoenix Project


Relevant Tests should be Applied to Ensure Quality of Assets Early



1. Make Relevant Tests

– This requires ability to target specific use cases (and not others).

– Challenge: Dependency Management • Replacing them is best, but expensive (Test Data Management, Service Virtualization,

Containerization)

• Accepting them is easy, but weak (results in brittle tests - can you trust them?)



2. Apply the Tests

– Requires tests are codified in an automatable way

– Test Runners: SoapUI, JUnit, SOA Suite unit tests

3. Use the Tests to Ensure Quality Early – Run on a timer (e.g. cron)

– Run upon check-in (Version Control)

– Run as part of deployment process (Release Orchestration, WLST, Containerization)

Xander van Rooijen – Sept 2016

DevOps at Rabobank


Deploy = software + infrastructure

23

• Ops responsible for all infrastructure

• Dev responsible for software

• Dev responsible for infrastructure in UAT (Ops as Advisor)

• Ops focusses on monitoring

Present Future

• Causing:

• Configuration issues and failures

• Unpredictable test output

• No trust

• Resulting in:

• Same configuration everywhere

• Predictable test ouput

• No more blaming


Production issue? Re-install!

24

• Lengthy troubleshooting process

– Due to complex environments

• Much expertise needed to fix

• Automated re-install of failing component

• Troubleshooting afterwards

Present Future

• Causing:

• Long outages with business impact

• Frustration

• Resulting in:

• Focus on resuming service as fast as possible

• Due to automation, decreased need of expertise


Version control of the environment is more important than version control of code!

25

• Multi-Domain SOA Platform to meet needs of multiple Lines of Business

• Manage Oracle Middleware Infrastructure as code

• MyST Platform Blueprints define Oracle Middleware desired state.

• MyST used to provision multi-domain SOA env. From 30+ days to 2 hours.

• Platform Blueprints version controlled

• Blueprints updated to make configuration changes, MyST then applies required changes.

• 300% ROI over first 2 years

Software defined environments let you treat Oracle Middleware Infrastructure as Code.

So you can easily version control, review, test, promote and deploy your configurations across all your environments.

“Configuration drift and unauthorized configuration

changes account for nearly 80% of all IT service outages” source: Gartner Research


Re-Provision Non-Prod Environments before each code release

26

Increasing Confidence in release process

PROD PRE TEST CI

Increasing Confidence in build’s production readiness

• Migration of 500-1000 services from JCAPS to Oracle SOA, OSB, MFT & B2B

• Automated provisioning of 65 domains on Exalogic, across dual sites.

• Provisioned initial environments in 30 days with MyST vs 650 days manually.

• 60 Minutes to Re-Provision production equivalent environments.

• Automated build and deployment slashed release time to 15 minutes.

• Approx. 1300+ Releases per year

• 90%+ reduction in defects caused by configuration issues.

• Automated provisioning means we can create new environments in minutes

• Re-provision Non-Prod to eliminate configuration drift – ensures consistency with Production

• Encourages “right” behaviour – i.e. stops manual configuration changes as they will be blown away

• Significantly reduces likelihood of issue deploying to Prod

Issues caused by Configuration Drift are often the most difficult to diagnose and result in many wasted months of man effort to resolve.


Re-Provision Production for each major code release

27

• Deploy 15 Environments per Major Release, upto 100 servers in PROD

• Approx. 500 servers, split across 15 environments

• From 2-4 months to 5-6 hours to provision a 50 server environment

• 25% reduction in software delivery lifecycle

• Major Release every 3-6 months.

• Zero down time for each major release with Blue Green deployments

• 90%+ reduction in defects caused by configuration drift

Blue Environment

Release N

Router

Green Environment

Release N+1

• Allows time to validate new release is behaving as expected before go-live

• Zero down-time for go-live.

• Makes rollback very simple
