The values are defined as the “3 Ways”:

• Way 1: Systems thinking
• Way 2: Amplify feedback loops
• Way 3: Culture of Experimentation and Learning

There are a number of discussions about the principles of DevOps “out there” but I am unsure if there is a single codified source (but perhaps I am missing something). Here are some ideas:

• Automate - everything
• Stable, cross functional teams
• Test early and often
• Continuously deliver small increments - create a continuous steam of value
• Outside-in development - test interfaces before you test code to ensure that when you integrate everything together it has a good chance of working.
• Improve continuously
• Experiment frequently
