Dean Leffingwell, creator and chief methodologist of SAFe, recently announced his CALMR Approach to DevOps in SAFe. In summary SAFe promotes continuous integration, continuous deployment and release on demand. C – Culture. A shared responsibility for development and operations. A – Automation. Automate the CD pipeline, dynamically spinning and tearing down development environments that emulate production, test automation, and deployment automation. L – Lean flow. General push for smaller batch sizes of software delivery, limit WIP, provide real-time visibility of software. Increase predictability, accelerate feedback, reduce rework, increase release frequency and lower costs. M – Measurement. Measure flow through delivery improvement. For example, use Kanban to map out the entire delivery pipeline, measure cycle time, lead-time, and use telemetry for all applications and servers. R – Recovery. Enable real-time monitoring, enable faster recovery. Redundancy, and scalability. Learn more about DevOps and SAFe.
