SHOW NOTES:

IS MAINTENANCE EVER APPRECIATED OR ENJOYABLE?

  • Spent the day surrounded by maintenance activities (oil, AC, power-wash)
  • The costs of maintenance are real and opportunity
  • Maintenance often goes unappreciated and unseen
  • Naming: Release Notes, Technical Debt, Chaos Engineering

TECHNICAL DEBT VS. MAINTENANCE

  • Should we encourage a lack of maintenance vs. innovation as a priority?
  • Should we encourage active maintenance with lower hard costs?
  • Is there a way to put respect on maintenance? (e.g. OSS maintainers)
  • Do we undervalue maintenance (e.g. Backup/Recovery, DisasterRecovery, etc.)?
  • What maintenance best practices do you use? What are the good and bad of them?
