In this episode, our Accelerators Santaji, Remko, and Nawid discuss whether Cloud actually saves costs and how that translates to savings in the short term and the long term.
Furthermore, we discuss how you should actually view costs and touch on different approaches on how to manage costs at scale in a cloud environment.
Whether you are currently considering cloud migrations or struggling with managing costs, this conversation worth listening to. -
In this episode, our Accelerators Remko, Nawid, and Markus discuss the benefits and drawbacks of Tool standardization. We look at the pros and the cons, is this suitable for big enterprises or only for startups? Where do you draw the line? When do you need to do it and when do you need to avoid it.

In this episode, our Accelerators Phani, Remko and Nawid discuss the benefits and drawbacks of Low code and No code platforms. We focus mainly on topics such as quality, maintainability, flexibility, lock-in and various other criteria when considering such a move.
What does it mean for your workforce and how does it scale? How does the rapid development of applications with these platforms change our perception of quality?
If you are using a low code platform or considering to do so, this conversation is one you do not want to miss. -
In this episode, our Accelerators Nawid, Markus, Phani and our guest speaker Chris Stone discuss the origins and context of how the agile manifesto came to existence and whether it needs an update 20 years after its creation.
We discuss what the agile manifesto has meant and what it has been lacking in general and also in more specific contexts. And whether alternatives to the agile manifesto, such as manifesto 2.0, heart of agile, modern agile or DevOps are the answer to these shortcomings. How has the manifesto and the principles of agile led our industry in the form of commoditization of certifications. And finally of course, can we apply Agile principles such as continuous experimentation and learning and continuous improvement to Agile itself and update it to fit the needs of the community in 2020?
Whether you are working in agile teams or leading an agile organization or one that is transforming to agile, this is a conversation worth listening to.

In this episode, our Accelerators Nawid, Remko, Markus, Phani, Monica and Santaji join the conversation about cross functionality in teams and what it means to be t-shaped. As the demand for shorter software development cycles is ever increasing. One of the more significant contributors seems to be the creation of cross-functional teams and the elimination of silo's as we know them in larger traditional organization structures. Although, even when cross-functional teams seem to save the day at first glance, often we see that this is nothing more than simply making the silo's smaller instead of getting rid of them. T-shaping is one of the solutions proposed to combat this and make way for removing silo's wherever they may exist within your value chain. But how do we create cross-functional teams with t-shaped engineers? To get an answer to that question and many more, you may want to listen in to this episode.
If you are struggling with the creation of cross-functional teams or motivating your engineers to become more t-shaped, this conversation is worth listening to. -
In this episode, our Accelerators Nawid, Remko and Markus discuss the advent of Infrastructure as Code and its implications on how we came to think about our machines. We talk about their advantages and disadvantages and how it has changed the world of Ops and Infra through cost reduction but also how these technologies have enabled us to distribute the load of infra management throughout teams. And what the impact of this evolution will mean for the skillset and capabilities of current and future DevOps teams.
-
In this episode, our Accelerators Nawid, Remko, Santaji and Markus discuss virtualization and containerization. How these technologies were born and what these technologies have brought us and at what cost. We talk about the origins of containerization and what paved the way for its birth and what that has meant for the evolution of the web since its introduction. Containerization for one has had a huge effect on how we design our applications and infrastructure but it also means a shift in responsibility and a mindset change towards scalability, flexibility, security and overall design of our architecture and infrastructure.
If you're new to the world of containers or even if you're a veteran, either way this is a conversation worth listening to.

In this episode, our Accelerators Nawid, Phani, Remko, Santaji and our guest Zeger Hendriks discuss the differences between Trunk Based Development (TBD) and Feature Branching as repository strategies. We briefly talk about the emergence of these strategies and how they have gained popularity and why. What makes these strategies work and what are the consequences? Is choosing one over the other a sign of maturity within your team and organization or is one strategy always the best? And should you combine them to create your own special flavour?
If you want to have an answer to all of the above and even more, then wait no longer and have a listen.
Whether you are working in a greenfield project or trying to mature within the confines of an existing project, this is a conversation worth listening to!

In this fourth episode, our Accelerators Nawid, Markus and Phani discuss the role, benefits and drawbacks of implementing Test-Driven Development(TDD) within your Software Development Cycle and share their views on how TDD incorporates other principles and practices associated with writing maintainable, high quality code. We briefly touch on topics such as SOLID and Clean Code. And we discuss how TDD can be implemented in greenfield projects as well as legacy code which needs to be refactored.
Whether you are working as a coach, an architect, a developer, tester, or a manager in an IT organization and you would like to know how to increase the quality and stability of your code, this is a conversation worth listening to!Links to topics discussed during the podcast:
