Episode 8 - Supply Chain Resiliency

Supply Chain has become a household term during the pandemic - this is because issues in supply chain has led to disruptions for consumer goods or even chicken sandwich - as Marshall pointed out in his blog post here (https://devopslamb.wordpress.com/2020/12/30/disaster-recovery-for-supply-chains/)

I'm joined by Marshall Lamb, Distinguished Engineer and CTO of Sterling, IBM Sustainability Software to discuss what a resilient supply chain looks like, how to build it and its relationship with SRE. Marshall also shares his guidance for practitioners interested in the supply chain industry and ingredients organizations should embrace to building resilient solutions.
