Cloud adoption has outpaced the development of corresponding expertise in cloud operations, leading to a significant skills gap across the industry. In this regard, many organizations have had to abandon cloud initiatives because they lacked the necessary in-house expertise to manage them. As a result, critical projects are delayed, and costs and operational risks increase. Recognizing this gap, Cory O’Daniel co-founded MassDriver, a platform designed to simplify cloud infrastructure management for engineers without extensive cloud or operations experience. In this episode, Cory will explain how MassDriver allows teams to focus on building business value rather than getting bogged down in intricate cloud configurations.

There's so much more to testing than just writing automated tests that run in CI. Testers on high-performing teams don't just write tests. They work closely with site reliability engineers, ensuring that the infrastructure is tested as well. They get involved in production. But how does one introduce this holistic approach to testing to one's team? Even more so, how does one introduce continuous integration to an organization, if it hasn't been adopted yet? In this podcast episode, we welcome Lisa Crispin , Author, Agile Testing Coach, "tester by trade", in her own words. Among other things, we talk about a holistic approach to testing, how to shift from shipping many times a day to once a month, and how to help organizations adopt continuous integration. Listen to the full episode or read the edited transcript. Table of contents: What’s more to testing than just writing tests?
