Release Automation – all the fundamentals you need to know

Abstract:

The process of automating the deployment of an application from development, to testing, and then to production, stretches across vastly different IT environments. Automating the release deployment process is a prerequisite for any organization moving towards continuous delivery and automated release promotion along the SDLC, and a potential cornerstone of any DevOps initiative.

But what does Release Automation actually mean for release, deployment, change and application delivery teams, operations, production and the business as a whole? Both development and IT operations teams urgently need a solution to effectively streamline application release deployments - to deliver quality applications faster and meet growing business needs. * How exactly does it work? * What does it do and equally importantly, what doesn’t it do? * What impact can it make on release cycles, where and how? * Which organizations have adopted this? * What benefits are they seeing? * Can they really shorten cycles from months or weeks to days or minutes? * What is an application delivery maturity model – and where are you currently on this?

This session gives you all the essentials and explains how Release Automation can complement your existing automation technologies.
