As software system complexity increases, so necessarily does the production infrastructure responsible for build, test, release, deploy. What is the future of this trend? This engaging talk explores the evolution of the relationship between complex projects and their supporting systems across other industries. Using history as a guide to the future, it considers the creation of a distinct new engineering discipline -- software production engineering -- with new tools, methodologies, and people specifically targeting the unique challenges of this space.
