Book description
***Over a half-million sold! And available now, the Wall Street Journal Bestselling sequel The Unicorn Project*** "Every person involved in a failed IT project should be forced to read this book."--TIM O'REILLY, Founder & CEO of O'Reilly Media "The Phoenix Project is a must read for business and IT executives who are struggling with the growing complexity of IT."--JIM WHITEHURST, President and CEO, Red Hat, Inc.

In this newly updated and expanded edition of the bestselling The Phoenix Project, co-author Gene Kim includes a new afterword and a deeper delve into the Three Ways as described in The DevOps Handbook. Bill, an IT manager at Parts Unlimited, has been tasked with taking on a project critical to the future of the business, code named Phoenix Project. But the project is massively over budget and behind schedule. The CEO demands Bill must 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 a 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.
