Real team performance @ the Rabobank

on YouTube ↗11m

" summary

Rabobank achieves measurable team speed by combining three concrete changes: Spring Boot for instant local feedback, PCF (Cloud Foundry) for fast, repeatable deployment, and a single Jenkins pipeline plus microservice templates to handle ~10–20 services. Teams adopt mobbing/pairing, do immediate story writing and poker in-session, and demo straight from the recent build. Result: an external feature shipped from spec to production within a week and an internal service delivered from spec to live in a single day.
