“Co-Ops” is a term that one of the attendees at a talk I was giving about cooperative pipelines came up with. I wish I knew his name. I asked him to email me afterwards so I can credit him but he never did.
Co-Ops describes the act of working with a cooperative pipeline: A Pipeline that every expertise contributes to: Dev, Test, Ops, Sec, Compliance etc.. a SINGLE Cooperative pipeline, with humans removed from tactical pipeline decision.
I find it a really great naming scheme, and I think I’ll use it to title my book “Co-Ops: Enabling True Continuous Delivery with Cooperative Pipelines & Processes.”
I’m still not fully “sold” on the full title. I fyou have ideas - I’d love to hear them. Your thoughts are welcome!
