Costly, error prone manual processes and efforts
to deliver software across an enterprise
CHALLENGES
Upgrade risk due to managing multiple application
configurations and versions across servers
Slow deployment to development and test
environments leave teams waiting and unproductive

Delivery Challenges
Today’s business and technical needs are pushing traditional delivery approaches to the breaking point
“At some point, you take a step back, and you realize you have an awful lot of siloe’d systems that are limiting transparency across strategic projects”.

Test and Ops teams have increased pressures to keep up with increased loads but continue to use waterfall approaches and traditional tools.
§ Automate deployments to test environments (Int, QA, UAT etc.) – Generate confidence in the applications and your ability to deploy
– Remove human variability – Fine granularity of deployment
Develop, integrate, build, deploy and test in small work packages
§ Test in production-like environments – Use virtualized environments for testing but also use real databases, queues, host systems etc.
§ Document the strategy – automatically – Provide a full audit trail of all deployments including the content and operations used
§ Treat deployment as a part of the development lifecycle – Not ‘something done by someone else’
– Architectural awareness
DevOps Principles & Values

A Continuous Delivery Pipeline
Development Testing Staging Production Business Owners Customers
§ Validate on more production-like conditions earlier
§ Automate hand-offs/promotions to increase velocity through the different stages
§ Standardization on processes and assets between Dev and Ops
§ Automated monitoring and dashboarding of quality and performance against service level agreements at multiple stages
Ensure applications are production-ready throughout the lifecycle and can be released at any time while minimizing rollback due to quality issues

IBM UrbanCode Deploy Deployment Automation
Deployment of Applications through Environments
§ Rapidly deliver to multiple environments for testing
§ Visibility into deployment status via dashboards
§ Easily roll back applications due to errors or changes
§ Compliance via audit trails and security
§ Integrated with existing investments (Open Source, Tivoli, Cloud, Microsoft, Commerce, Portal)
