3.0 out of 5 starsGood material, but aimed at big business only
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on July 25, 2020
Very good material by a very good author. While I do highly recommend this book, I think it leaves out something very important: small business, where 75% of people are employed. The teams described would not only be individuals in most companies, they'd probably be rolled up into one or two people wearing many hats. And it is in these resource-starved environments, say 200 employees or less, that the time saving and rapid deployment could be best put to use.

Granted, too few small businesses are focused on improving themselves; but they're so completely ignored that I cannot rate this book higher than mid-range, even though I think every small business IT Manager should read it. Also, compared to the author's two novelizations of the concepts, the writing is about as dry as you can get.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book on devops
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on December 13, 2019

Excellent book that goes over what DevOps means and how it should be implemented to be successful in our modern development world.

The case studies are awesome and really makes shine how important automation, continuous learning throughout the whole company is.

Definitely recommend even for non software developers/engineers. It's a great read as DevOps is a company wide mentality/effort and not just on the engineering side.

I bought this book to help me try and understand devops better but it's very technical and dry. Not my type of reading but the content would be good for more technically inclined folks.

Th content could have been reduced by about 40% as, lot of phrases are mentioned over and over again. However, it gives a good brief about DevOps. Also, case studies are very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Manager Level DevOps Book
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on January 6, 2019
Verified Purchase
This book is perfect for a manager. It really helps people understand the "why" and the "how" of DevOps at a level managers can understand easily. Continuous Delivery by Jez Humble is definitely still recommended if you're a developer though, as devs may find this DevOps Handbook a little more boring.

It could be much smaller. I feel the author repeats the same concepts over and over again. The concepts are good and sound but I estimate this book could have 50% of the size if the author didn't repeat himself and the concepts so often.

If you already have read the phoenix project book and have some experience with devops organizations then this doesn't add much.

This book has the clearest and most comprehensive explanation of the Agile value proposition I have ever read. Well worth reading to understand how all the pieces of an organization and organisational culture fit together to deliver higher quality value streams faster.
