The book takes you by hand and reveals you the magic world of DevOps.The book has very good pace as it starts slowly with the fundamentals (ch1,ch2) then introducing the setup phase of the book (ch3,ch4,ch5) and then going full speed for the rest of the book.Also each new chapter is build upon the previous ones, so it would be best not to skip any chapters.The abundance of examples will help even the most inexperienced reader to get a good grasp on the subjects.In addition I really liked the personal “tips” that the author shared in the book in the form of tips on how to best approach a situation because it gives more perspective on the subject and it works as an “unofficial” recommendation section (i.e. Chapter 4 DevOps CoE).Additionally the author takes seemingly unrelated business practices (such as the Spotify Agile Model) and reintoduces them.Furthermore, although the book revolves around the banking DevOps environment, the information is presented in an agnostic way. You can apply the same principles in other ventures (such as insurance/insurtech).Finally one very important aspect of the book is that it treats DevOps as part of the whole bank system, and how it correlates with corporate and business goals and needs. In other words how DevOps help the bank achieve their goals.I recommend it to everyone who works in Tech (regardless if it’s financial institution or not.

Well written, structured and engaging. The several frameworks included provide good inspiration of practical methodologies, that can support an enterprise DevOps adoption. Though some of them have white text in grey background, which makes them little bit difficult to read. Note: 1) this book is for large and complex enterprises, not for small ones and 2) while the examples come from the financial services industry, i think they are quite industry agnostic in reality.

I love a non fiction book that doesn’t waffle on - it gets to the point simply and quickly. This is a nice and easy read; with great use of diagrams to help the reader grasp concepts. Recommended for all working with Financial Services Technology (including the Business, as lets face it - who doesn’t work with tech these days!)
