 Awesome. Yeah. Thank you for inviting us to talk about this book that we sprinted in 10 days. I'm a Book Sprint facilitator and also the CEO of our little company Book Sprints. Book Sprints started in open source software when our founder Adam Hyde experimented with floss manuals and tried to make writing documentation collaborative and fun and fast and came up with this five day process. Then it moved to big tech but also academia, open educational resources, government reports. We've sprinted books on basically anything but we're still really happy to make books on open source projects. So yeah, I was really happy when HPE invited us to do a Book Sprint on Spiffy Inspire. This year we couldn't meet in person anymore so our five day process is now a 10 day virtual sprint process but it still works really phenomenally because the writers, in this case we have 12 writers, they really put in long hours and across different time zones and a lot of hard work to still make a book in this time frame. If you want to move to the next slide I can give you just a very quick impression of what that may look like in the background you see our brainstorming board. So what we would usually do in a room full of whiteboards we now do online. So we brought together 12 writers for 10 days to first brainstorm and come up with a concept for the book, structure that and start writing and revising the content. So everything has been going through 12 pairs of hands and eyes and fact checked and rewritten and restructured over and over again. Until we come up with a book that you see on the right side is just two example pages. The book has 200 pages and 80 diagrams, all of that done within those same 10 days. So I was the facilitator I have absolutely no content knowledge, but I guided the group of writers through this entire process helped them to stay on track and stay productive. And in the background I have a team of copy editors and book production experts who make all those diagrams copy editor content, the layout of the book in real time during those same 10 days so everything is ready to be published immediately. So, yeah, the book was launched about a week ago and today's our first little presentation which is really exciting. And some of the authors I see here, which is amazing. Maybe you can introduce them quickly. Yeah, absolutely. I think this was my first book sprint but I think Andreas is a master of book prints now he has done multiple of these so he was the first person to bring this idea up as well. Eventually we went with it. He convinced us. I think it was like from a person who did the book sprint for the first time it was it was a great experience. Initially I could not believe that you could create a book in 10 days right but you could. You talk about these prints within code and development but you know having a having a sprint around a book was was something that's really useful and we believe we had a diverse set of writers from different companies from different fields. So this is the list of you know all these people from different companies. Many of them are renowned in the specific community in the security circle like Emily Fox and a bunch of others. All of them had some sort of experience within the domain right either they were like I said security experts, or they had run similar things like Ian and Michael and Netflix in the past. They had some operation experience with spiffy inspired as well when their organizations with Frederick and Eli to name a bunch. So again it was a great experience. It was and we feel like it solves a real problem for someone who is looking to learn about spiffy. Again we wrote the book with a perspective of, hey this is how if you wanted to get started on spiffy. These are the key concepts you need to learn what was the rationale behind starting spiffy in the first place. These are the key concepts, like Barbara mentioned what was amazing was, we were able to generate I think 50 plus I don't know the exact number I know you had it on the last slide. tons of illustrations, 80 illustrations done and a lot of them are open source are available to the community as well we make it available if anyone wants to use those illustrations to convince their bosses or, you know preach spiffy within the organization they are feel free to do so. So we also covered some things like benefits for if an engineer likes the concept and they want to you know, build a case for it for their, you know boss or on the business side there's some content around that too. And it also covers likely advanced topics like you know deployment strategies and integrating spiffy with other tools and how does it compares with other tools as well also a big thank you to the practitioners stories that were submitted. Bobby from Anthem Ryan from Uber Germany from Pinterest Michael and mad from square. But amongst a few that submitted, you know, some real practitioner stories as well that you know people can get some deeper insights around that. So again, we're excited about this book. Hope you find it useful. I think we already have over 1000 downloads in the last week and we haven't even promoted it that much. The link is available. We'll have different versions of this book available soon as well both a hard copy and you're trying to get a kindle version of it as well. Like I just mentioned, I think there's a book of, you know, people who are trying to, you know, adopt the journey, going from zero to production with spiffy right and you'll hear a lot about this turtle you probably saw the turtle in all the slide decks to So we made the name of the turtle is zero the turtle naturally builds on a concept around you know how spiffy solve for the secret zero problem or the bottom turtle problem as well. So you'll see that a lot in presentation that I think Andrea see she did a couple of shows as well. So we're super excited. If you have feedback in the book. Let us know will be in every few months we are looking to revise that of course the project is changing and it will be available. Yes, we can definitely add to this book and we'll have like I said, a second edition and we'll add, you know, a lot more stuff to it. And contributions are welcome. I know we're at break time now right under us. Let me just check that is correct. So perfect. We've resynchronized in and I think we're on schedule. Thanks for, thanks for sharing this, oh man Barbara. It was quite a journey to write this. It was a very interesting process just eliciting the knowledge from everyone's head capturing it. I think that some of the framing folks who've started reading it, see it as is. It's a companion guide and the journey from zero to production so if you're not clear where to get started you're still wrapping your head around the concepts, it can help you with that. If you are further along and understand spiffy, but are having a hard problem convincing your peers or convincing your team or finding that business justification, you can find some tools there. And if you're past that stage and you're just ready to deploy and need to like reason around deployment strategies. How to tackle different applications, different systems, how to reason about holistically there's there's quite a bit there, as well as how does it fit into the rest of the ecosystem and integrating with with other systems.
