  • Today, possessing an agile IT environment is mission critical. With companies (and IT)  in constant flux, agility is key to maintaining business availability. As organizations deploy change into their systems, it is more important than ever for development (Dev) and operations (Ops) to break down the walls between them and work together.

    DevOps collaboration is essential in building a coordinated release management strategy. Without it, you cannot efficiently and quickly deliver more changes in the application lifecycle. Streamlining release management processes is imperative to eliminate bottlenecks and make business more available at less cost.

    Our speaker will discuss how you can improve your business availability and reduce risk in an agile IT environment by knocking down those barriers. This is an important contributor to value creation; and it will make way for sharing services, skills and systems across units and encourage best practices. Above all, it will also reduce unproductive tension in an organization by improving the cooperation between development and operations. Our speaker will explore the best practices for streamlining release management processes to make your business more available at less cost.
