Are you in an agile DevOps shop? Does everything work fabulously all of the time? Or do you list "it's complicated" on your resume?
This session will be a panel discussion of DevOps topics as they relate to project success in the real world. In preparing for this panel we interviewed a DevOps victim, er Data Scientist. Here are some of her comments about DevOps: - Apparently it's a world where testing is for losers
- People just throw in changes willy, nilly
- Basically the data is not broken until someone proves it's broken
- And they will deny, deny, deny
- Until you hit them multiple times with overwhelming evidence
- And then they won't fix it historically because the whole data set takes too long to process
- So every one that we have to fix in we start from ground zero for historical data
- Then people build their own silos
- And report to the execs their numbers from their silos
- And inevitably no one's silo matches anyone else's
In this session you will learn about the myths, realities and real best practices for trying to maintain data quality in a rapidly changing word.
