Old Model: 
Passive 
Consumption 
• We bought what our vendors sold us 
and upgraded when they told us to 
upgrade 
• We used what our IT department 
gave us 
• Multi-year product cycles? Yeah, I’m 
cool with that 
New Model: 
I WANT WHAT I 
WANT! 
• Mix and match every technology in 
one datacenter 
• Release early and often— 
actually…what’s a release? I deploy 
to production 
• If IT won’t give you what you want, 
you’ll find a way to get it
