Today we will speak to Kit Merker, COO of Nobl9 about Service Level Objectives (SLO).

He is currently Chief Operating Officer for Nobl9, driving community and growth for service reliability for enterprise development teams.

In the chapter the author tells four stories of disruption -- they are interesting in their own right. Still, if we look for a common thread I would suggest the communication needed to manage the balance between flow items (features, defects, risks, and debts).  Catch up on previous installments: Week 1: -   Week 2: -   Week 3: -   Week 4: - Week 5: -   Week 6: -   Week 8: -    Next SPaMCAST  Next week an essay on the role of the team lead in Scrum. As Mellisa Greller points out, the role of the TL is often overlooked. When a role is overlooked it causes friction. Unless you are starting a campfire, friction is not a great idea.   We will also have a visit from Jon M Quigley.
