Getting 100,000 Employees to DevOps

DXC's White Belt DevOps Dojo is DevOps 101 for 100,000 technologists in our company. That's 100,000 technologists issuing their first GitHub pull request, creating their first Jenkins pipeline, and writing their first Ansible playbook.


In this talk, we will share the content, and how we built it to be delivered.


Olivier is DevOps Principal at DXC technology, rolling out the DevOps culture and Continuous Delivery Pipeline practices across all the employees (100,000 technologists). He initiated DXC's DevOps dojos back in 2016, a balanced mix of training, hands-on coaching for teams to reach one goal: stop talking DevOps and start doing DevOps. He also introduced the use of ChatOps at scale - a mean to augment productivity and break down silos by using persistent chat combined with bots.


Currently leading strategic business engagement, data scientists, user experience developers and IOT research engineers to enable solutions for internal and external customers. For well over 30 years, Joan has had great pleasure of leading software development efforts for new product introduction, driving IT operations for small and large scale data centers, complex network separations, acquisitions, data driven analytics and critical transformations for high performance teams.
