Kanban, Devops and agility

01.04.2012, Devops, Kanban, by rhaen.

I read alot of different books about Kanban during the last days. Christmas holidays are awesome. I have found several books quite useful – here is a minimalistic presentation of them. I will/might review them later in a more detailed way.

Kanban
Author: David J. Anderson
Recommended: yes
Amazon:

€39,50 (Kanban Book)
€14,44 (Kanban Kindle Edition)

This book is a goldmine of information about all questions of Kanban. David explorer Kanban for software development. He is the guru without any question. I got his book (signed by him) in one of his courses. This book is just outstanding. A review will follow at later time.

Personal Kanban – Mapping world | Navigating life
Author: Jim Benson, Tonianne DeMaria Barry
Recommended: yes
Amazon:

€19,00 (Personal Kanban Book)
€7,21 (Personal Kanban Kindle Edition)

This book is about Kanban as a personal management system. It offers some insights how to use a personal management system based on Kanban. It shows some tipps and tricks, however, it’s not a fully appliable system. You need to tailor your own system and you’ll be guided. This book is more about the why and not that much about the doing.

Getting started with Kanban
Author: Paul Klipp
Recommended: HIGHLY!
Amazon:

€1,03 (Getting Started with Kanban Kindle Edition)

That’s an incredible short introduction into the Kanban methodology. Ok, the book features a website which provides a Kanban system as SAAS. However, everything is well explained independently. If you need to get grip on Kanban fast, this is your book to read!
Please note – there is also a free PDF version. The Kindle version works perfect and it’s cheap – no reason to work with the PDF. Please look at the PDF version here: Getting started with Kanban.
