πŸ“ (blog): update feature delivery timeline for Azure DevOps team
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The blog post now accurately reflects the timeline of feature delivery
for Microsoft's Azure DevOps team. The text clarifies that the team
delivered over 250 features after four years, stabilizing at just over
300, rather than after six years. This change provides a more precise
account of the team's progress and emphasizes the effectiveness of
continuous delivery.

The organisation must be willing to invest significant time and effort in enabling it. Microsoft's Azure DevOps team exemplifies this. They transitioned from shipping new features every two years to delivering value every three weeks, increasing their annual feature delivery from 25 to nearly 300 at their peak.

This evolution was not the result of a silver bullet but a deliberate effort to modernise architecture, eliminate technical debt, automate relentlessly, and embed a culture of continuous improvement. It is an ongoing evolution that has paid dividends for every year of effort invested. They delivered 58 features at the end of the first year of investment, rising to over 250 features after six years.
