Blackboard Learn - Keep Your Head in the Clouds

How do you implement DevOps in a software company that has 16 years of established culture and processes? What if this organization is the industry leader and has everything to lose by changing?


Over the last two years, Blackboard has gone through an enormous change, from a company delivering enterprise software once every 18 months to one on the verge of delivering Cloud enabled education software through continuous deployment.


My presentation will talk about the triumphs and challenges of taking a group entrenched in years of legacy to a new vision of faster delivery of high quality software.
