Which statement describes one element of the CALMR approach to DevOps?

Question

Options

• ABuild cross-functional Agile Release Trains around the flow of value to the Customer
• BKeep everything under version control
• CEstablish a work environment of shared responsibility
• DDecentralize decision making

• A
  7% (5)
• B
  1% (1)
• C
  87% (62)
• D
  4% (3)

Explanation

Option C is correct because CALMR is a SAFe DevOps acronym where the C stands for Culture - specifically, cultivating a shared responsibility culture between Development and Operations teams, breaking down silos so both own quality and delivery outcomes together.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A describes building Agile Release Trains (ARTs), which is a SAFe PI Planning/ART concept, not a CALMR element.
• B (version control) is a general DevOps/CI practice but does not correspond to any of the five CALMR pillars.
• D (decentralize decision making) is a SAFe Lean Enterprise principle, not part of CALMR.

Memory tip: Use the CALMR acronym itself - Culture, Automation, Lean flow, Measurement, Recovery. The "C" for Culture is the human/people element, and "shared responsibility" is the hallmark of a healthy DevOps culture, making option C the natural fit for anything framed around team environment or ownership.
