具体描述

Bill is an IT manager at Parts Unlimited. It's Tuesday morning and on his drive into the office, Bill gets a call from the CEO.

The company's new IT initiative, code named Phoenix Project, is critical to the future of Parts Unlimited, but the project is massively over budget and very late. The CEO wants Bill to report directly to him and fix the mess in ninety days or else Bill's entire department will be outsourced.

With the help of a prospective board member and his mysterious philosophy of The Three Ways, Bill starts to see that IT work has more in common with manufacturing plant work than he ever imagined. With the clock ticking, Bill must organize work flow streamline interdepartmental communications, and effectively serve the other business functions at Parts Unlimited.

In a fast-paced and entertaining style, three luminaries of the DevOps movement deliver a story that anyone who works in IT will recognize. Readers will not only learn how to improve their own IT organizations, they'll never view IT the same way again.

读后感

一本深入浅出的书，即便是对于我这样不喜欢看书的人，还是被故事情节所吸引。 通过一件件具体的案例让我们知道在运维过程中遇到一些问题的处理方法和思路。 工作中因为有太多的计划外的工作，而导致计划内工作无法按时完成。 而如何管理计划外的工作，本身就是一件非常值得思考...  

我刚入行一年未满。常常好奇运维的日常到底是什么？这本书完美地给了我答案。 ok，本书主要是介绍项目管理。但是主角遇到的问题大多是运维问题。 一开始，我们的主角接手了一个烂摊子。IT部门的规范一团乱，甚至连基本的变更都没有批准流程。主角第一个工作就是下令，变更操作...  

这本书把我一直在寻找的一种工作方法，嵌入到了小说里面写出来。看到是一个字，爽. 但我一直忙于工作的时候。总会有一个想法在脑海里回荡，总觉得这，不是个办法，但又不知道怎么办。看了这本书，他仿佛像一个明灯，点亮了我前进的道路。 他从一个宏观的角度来去看待整个开发测...  

《凤凰项目》一书中，作为导师出现的埃瑞克向作者提出了“三步工作法”，他说：“年轻人，一旦明白了这些，你就能踏上理解‘三步工作法’的征途了。第一工作法帮助我们理解在工作从开发部移向IT运维部时该如何创建快速工作流，因为那就是业务部门与客户之间的衔接。第二工作法...  

用户评价

像我一样不知道啥事DevOps的可以读读，故事讲得不错。能告诉你目前这些正确的程序都是为什么产生的。

一本IT纪实小说，讲述PU公司通过IT项目与公司业务结合继而将公司起死回生的故事。John带领IT团队在高人Eick的指点下，加强Dev与IT Ops及business之间的协同工作，·中间不乏人事政治斗争，甚有意思。
