Full Stack Journey 065: Developer Tools And Practices Other IT Disciplines Can Adopt

Today’s Full Stack Journey asks: Are there tools, techniques, or practices common to software development that other IT disciplines should consider adopting? Can these tools and practices help other IT disciplines improve automation, operations, and daily tasks?

Guests Adeel Ahmad (@devops_adeel on Twitter) and Kurt Seifried (@kurtseifried on Twitter) join host Scott Lowe to discuss this question.

Topics include:

  • The top two or three things they recommend for other IT disciplines
  • Why these techniques/tools/practices
  • The potential benefits for non-developers

You’ll also want to be sure to catch Adeel’s and Kurt’s response to the recommendations they hear from others that they don’t agree with!
