On the fading of organizational interfaces in the era of Internet-of-Things

Abstract

THE previous article discussed the adaptation from a Greek temple structure to the tightly packed atomic structure, when tackling the organizational issues related to the transformation of a (hardware) product centric company to the business-driven entity. It turned out that tight interaction is necessary if fast- evolving data-driven business services or software products are to be developed and marketed. Therefore, it might be interesting to investigate a unique approach nowadays often used in the software world: DevOps, a term first forged by Andrew Clay Shafer and Patrick Debois at the Agile 2008 conference [1].
