Foreword by Patrick Debois

Patrick Debois is the lucky guy that coined the term DevOps and enthusiast ever since. Organizer of Devopsdays.org

This book demystifies DevOps

You might wonder: What is DevOps? DevOps is a cultural shift in companies towards a more healthy and successful organization. DevOps is based on lean principles - this book will describe the foundations of DevOps as well as concrete ways to introduce it into your organization.

\"Lean Bites\" is for every technical leader

It will provide you with new insights for making your organization more focused and successful by making your people more productive and satisfied. Your people will love you for removing friction from their daily work and your organization will thank you for creating more value faster than ever seen before.

You know all those other books about agile and lean

Hundreds of pages and hours of reading later, you feel like after a huge meal. You've stuffed so much new information into your brain, it's difficult to digest it all. How can you start to implement any of the ideas you've read about when you're suffering from information indigestion?

Think about a first class, five course meal instead

Every course comes in small, easily digestible portions. Each portion features a distinct taste and every course builds upon the last. Enjoy a wide variety of flavors without that stuffed feeling at the end. That's the concept behind \"Lean Bites\".

\"Lean Bites\" is a collection of our very best articles on lean - short and tasty

While you can find all of these articles on our blog for free, you'd miss out on the thoughtful selection and preparation we've made for \"Lean Bites\". We hand-picked the articles, re-editing each of them to maximize the value you get out of each single \"bite\".

In \"Lean Bites\" we took the chef's approach
