“This is a much needed book on building teamwork to drive technology infrastructure efforts. Mirco introduces a simple set of processes and well reasoned principles to align the organization, transform technology infrastructure, and deliver value for customers.”
*Eric Passmore, Partner Director of Commerce, Microsoft*

“DevOps is a hot topic. Pretty much every major organization wants it, and pretty much every major organization is struggling to come to grips with what ‘it' is and exactly how to get it. Mirco is a rare entity in the space. He's an architect who has grown up in large, complex organizations working with even larger, more complex systems integrators and delivery partners heavily reliant on ERP, CRM and other COTS applications that seem to challenge much of what DevOps is about. Both pragmatic and practical, he not only gives great tips on how to find your way down the DevOps path in these environments but will help you avoid many a mistake as he shares his own.”
*Mark Richards, SAFe Fellow at Coactivation*

"Whether you are just getting started with DevOps or you are a seasoned professional seeking counsel on how to apply its principles at scale, as you go through DevOps for the Modern Enterprise, you will find yourself infected by the enthusiasm Mirco has for DevOps and the benefits it can bring."
*Dr. Bhaskar Ghosh*
