In the vein of the bestselling The Phoenix Project and The Unicorn
Project, Investments Unlimited radically rethinks how organizations can
handle the audit, compliance, and security of their software
systems--even in highly regulated industries. By introducing concepts,
tools, and ideas to reimagine governance, Investments Unlimited
catalyzes a more humane way to enable high-velocity software delivery
that is inherently more secure.Investments Unlimited, Inc. has
accomplished what many other firms in their industry have failed to do:
they have successfully navigated the transition from legacy ways of
working to the digital frontier. With the help of DevOps practices,
Investments Unlimited delivers value to its customers with speed and
agility. But now, all that work is about to fall apart. Sure, DevOps
helped the company adapt, but it also failed them. While features moved
through the organization swiftly, their governance process became
inundated with friction, frustration, and failure. And now, their
inability to deliver what they promise has led regulators to slap them
with an MRIA (matter requiring immediate attention), the final warning
before cease-and-desist letters and fire sales. With the future of
Investments Unlimited on the line, a cross-functional team of executives
and engineers has just months to develop a modern governance process
that satisfies regulators but doesn't slow down the company's ability to
compete in the market. It is up to this ragtag team to navigate trials,
tribulations, site failures, and supply chain attacks, all on their path
to save the company from disaster.
