Agile vs Regulation: Development Environments with Alan Raison at Agile Yorkshire 

In this video, Alan explores the challenges and solutions associated with Agile tooling and managing development environments in software delivery teams. He discusses the complexity of managing diverse project tools, the constraints imposed by cyber security in regulated industries, and the need for agility in consultancy environments like NewRedo. Alan reviews several solutions for managing development environments, including traditional tools, browser-based IDEs, Docker, and the NIX package manager. He highlights NIX's potential for creating audit-friendly, configurable environments suited for regulated settings, despite its learning curve. The presentation concludes with the idea that while no universal solution exists, a tailored approach using a mix of tools like NIX and Docker could significantly improve the management of development environments, aligning with security requirements and enhancing operational efficiency.
