What You Will Teach with LEGO and Chocolate Simulation

Let’s take you through the key principles and practices that can be taught with the main simulation described in this book. Some of the more evident ones are systems thinking, flow, and feedback loop. This chapter will offer you a high-level overview of these concepts as well as their associated technical practices: Continuous Delivery, containerization, microservices, automated environments provisioning, and Infrastructure as Code. You will find “How to introduce this…” panels with an outline of specific models and metaphors used in the simulation that will help you bring these practices to life in your training, without writing a single line of code or building a CI/CD pipeline for real. The essential ideas of “shift left” and “shift right” of DevSecOps will also be described in this chapter.
