What does the Journey to the Cloud look like?

I mean what does it really take??

What does the journey to the cloud like when we are discussing application architecture? I had the pleasure of chatting with Richard Simon from the Cloud Therapists. We discussed the reality of mmigrating to cloud and the 4 stages defined in a chart that Richard has developing for a number of years, based on the familiar R’s of migration and customer interactions.

Podcast Series:On the Road to DevHops

In this video series, Trac Bannon and Bryan Finster belly up to the bar and have an honest dialog about DevOps, Software Engineering, and delivering value. These two spar, disagree, and even invite few guests when they need new punching bags (just kidding). From being a “SADMF” to Culture to debates on the meaning of Autonomy, the content is relevant and unedited. Trac and Bryan even add an occasional guest to spice up the mix!

But it took a few big “oh !@#$%” moments like the SolarWinds and Colonial Pipeline breaches to get the wheels of government really turning around improving software supply chain security.
