DevOps and business enterprise agility agnosticness
So far, we have outlined and discussed the dominant business enterprise agility models that a representative sample of incumbents have either already adopted or are in the process of doing so.
There were three reasons why we outlined those models:
- To inspire you on potential approaches you can take
- To examine conceptual similarities across them that are related to the DevOps evolution
- To collect data so that you can make a point that DevOps and business enterprise agility models can be reconciled in an agnostic way
I hope you have got some inspiration! Before we look into the other two objectives, I would like to make an aside and discuss a paradox that the enterprise agility models we have discussed have in common that also has a broader influence on the DevOps evolution. This paradox is autonomy and self-organization in an incumbent’s context.
