DevOps Culture Simulation (with Lego and Chocolate Game)
summary
A hands-on simulation uses Lego and Chocolate game to recreate three sprints and expose real bottlenecks: manual environment setup, large batch deployments, and siloed security. It shows concrete fixes — automated environment provisioning in the cloud, a CI/CD pipeline, moving security left, containerization and on-call rotations — and reports big impacts (elite teams deploy 208× more, Amazon ~130,000 deploys per day). Participants build Lego animals, run security scans, and the final sprint delivers many green packages, proving the practices work.
