Delayed Automation

In this episode, Lisa Crispin shares her experiences with the pattern “Delayed Automation” from the Cloud Native Patterns repository (https://www.cnpatterns.org/development-design/delayed-automation). We discuss the different trade-offs of applying it, based on different contexts. I also ask a long-time question: What can we learn from donkeys? If you are curious why, donkeys are Lisa’s brand!

Lisa recommends:

• Quality Coaching Roadshow podcast from Anne-Marie Charrett
• Accelerate book from Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble and Gene Kim
• Leading Quality book from Ronald Cummings-John and Owais Peer
