way of ‘fast’ or ‘agile’ digital efforts. The result: incoherent IT
strategies and shadow IT struggles that lead to dispersed, redundant, and
risky technology choices across the organization.
The battle, however, isn’t over the problem. It’s over what we should do

Go All the Way with Agile: From Agile to DevOps to Continuous Delivery - How
to Evolve Your Software Delivery

Prognostications, it's finally time to see how we did.
