In May of 2019, the fifth annual DevOps Enterprise Forum was held in Portland, Oregon. As always, industry leaders and experts came together to discuss the issues at the forefront of the DevOps Enterprise community and to put together guidance to help us overcome and move through those obstacles. This Journal is the collected papers from the DevOps Enterprise Forum.

A special thanks goes to the 2019 Forum sponsor, XebiaLabs. And most importantly a huge thank you to this year’s Forum participants, who contribute their valuable time and expertise and always go above and beyond to put together these resources for the entire community to share and learn.

The DevOps Enterprise Journal is published twice a year, with an issue of the collected DevOps Enterprise Forum papers and an issue of collected white papers inspired by the best of the DevOps Enterprise Summit talks. Each issue is curated by thought-leading editors and peer reviewers from the DevOps community.with each issue being curated by thought-leading editors and peer reviewers from the DevOps community.
