Welcome to WealthGrid! A Stranger Comes to Town Stranger Danger Cereal Killer You Say You Want an Evolution Which Evolutionary Stage Are You In?

1. What Is Cloud Native?

Cloud Native Is Not “The Cloud” A Cloud Native Primer

How Do I Know Cloud Native When I See It? It’s All About Services

Fitting Everything Together What Could Possibly Go Wrong? (Distributed) Systems Shock Shocking Immaturity The Executive Summary

2. The Human Challenge of Cloud Native

Culture Vulture A (Brief) Field Guide to Organizational Culture “Right” Solutions, “Wrong” Culture The Culture Clash Conundrum Which Brings Us Back to…Culture

I. Meet Our WealthGrid Team 3. What’s the Pattern? Architecture, Pattern Languages, and Design

Patterns A Time for Design A Cloud Native Pattern Language

Patterns in Context

Cloud Native Context in the Real World Common Contexts Patterns, Pattern Languages, and Designs

How Patterns Work What Makes a Pattern? How (Iba) Patterns Are Made Presentation Our Approach

4. Beyond Patterns: Behavior, Biases, and Managing Evolution

Conway’s Law Cognitive Biases Why Biases Are Useful Biases, Patterns, and Behavior Nudges Common Biases and Nudges What to Watch For, and How to Overcome

II. First Attempt at Transformation–Cloud Native “Side Project” 5. Knowing Thyself: The Cloud Native Maturity Matrix Tool

Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall… For Mature Audiences Only: The Maturity Matrix Staying in Sync Applying the Matrix

Culture Product/Service Design Team Process Architecture Maintenance Delivery Provisioning Infrastructure

Connecting the Dots The Axes, United

III. Second Attempt at Cloud Native 6. Tools for Understanding and Using Cloud Native Patterns

So Many (Deceptively Simple) Tools Tools to Take You the Rest of the Way

Proficiency Versus Creativity Want Fries with That? Creativity, Proficiency, and Enterprise Three Horizons We Are the Champions?

So What the Heck Happened at WealthGrid? Summary

PHASE 4: RUN

Strangle All the Old Things Keeping Creativity Alive

The End?

13. Common Transformation Challenges

Too-Early “Lift & Shift” Move Treating Cloud Native as Simply an Extension of Agile “Spiking” Cloud Native Transformation via Unbalanced Approach New System, Old Structure Wrong Order of Implementation Platform Not Ready for Production; Going to Production Anyway The Greenfield Myth, or, the “All or Nothing” Approach Lack of Platform Team Lack of Education and Onboarding Plan Summary
