UAT

We are observing UAT phase for one product of many, lets call it “P(X)”

P ↔ T cycle: Technology signals P(X) readiness for UAT. After some time feedback arrives on the outcome. That is also the result of Business feedback from step 2 bellow.

P(Products) -->|"2:P(X) UAT Outcome"| T(Technology)
T(Technology) -->|"1:Ready for P(X) UAT"| P(Products)

B ↔ P cycle: P reports on UAT result to the business. Business manages the report and sends a decision back to Products

B(Business) -->|"2: P(X) UAT Decision"| P(Products)
P -->|"1: P(X) UAT Report"| B

Deployment

IMPORTANT

Technology method domain does the product release and deployment to the organization IT Landscape

flowchart LR
T(Technology) -->|1:Deploy| I(IT Landscape)
I -->|2:Status| T(Technology)

Termination / Continuation

P ↔ T cycle: After Product has signaled start of the deployment to the production, Technology signals P(X) deployment to production. After some time Products signals the start of P(X) project archival. That is also the result of Business feedback from step 2 bellow.

flowchart LR
P(Products) -->|"2:Archive P(X)"| T(Technology)
T(Technology) -->|"1:P(X) Deployed to PROD"| P(Products)

B ↔ P cycle: Business with Products manages the reasons of continuation or termination of P(X) projects

flowchart LR
B(Business) -->|"2: P(X) is OK to Archive"| P(Products)
P -->|"1: P(X) Deployed to PROD"| B

Larger Organizations: Business Domain form the Business Initiatives

Larger organizations can manage several products in the same time. Several B ↔ P ↔ T Flows. One per one product.

Business, Product, Technology — the DBJ Operating Model governing continuous delivery.

The B ↔ P ↔ T

DISAMBIGUATION — “BPT Loop” and “Operating Model” are not synonyms; they are different altitudes of the same thing.

BPT Loop describes the mechanism — the endless Business · Product · Technology cycle.

Operating Model describes its role in the architecture — what BPT is to the organization.

One Flow Two Cycles

DBJ Method Flow is made of Two Cycles chaining the B, P and T
