Session: Industrial DevOps for Cyber-Physical Solutions

Agile and DevOps practices continue to challenge the status quo and improve mission and business outcomes. Over the years we have seen how these practices have worked well in software and now we are learning how to scale these principles and practices across large, complex communications and cyber-physical systems composed of hardware, firmware, and software. We refer to this new way of thinking and set of principles as Industrial DevOps. Industrial DevOps offers the ability to adapt to changing needs, reduce cycle time for delivery, increase value for money, and leverage innovations. For large cyber-physical solutions, software is only one part of the value stream and if we apply these principles to only one part of the value stream, the rest of the value stream quickly becomes the bottleneck impacting our ability to demonstrate and deliver frequently. When adopting Industrial DevOps principles to developing cyber-physical solutions it is important to understand flow and how we design and build in order to iterate for faster feedback and results. Using an autonomous vehicle scenario, we will discuss the importance of Industrial DevOps principles, systems thinking and value stream identification for improving dynamic learning and improving sustainable value delivery.


Key Takeaways

  • Become familiar with the concept of Industrial DevOps for Cyber-Physical Solutions
  • Learn about the 8 principles of Industrial DevOps
  • Leveraging the power of Industrial DevOps for large complex systems is an industry step change and the companies that solution this problem first will increase transparency, reduce cycle time, increase value for money, and innovate faster.
