Continuous Delivery seeks to deliver increased Business Agility by releasing smaller releases more frequently. To truly leverage Continuous Delivery, enterprises must consider impacts that span functional silos. Enterprises also struggle to apply continuous delivery principals to applications that touch older, slower moving components. When applications are a composite of numerous services, databases, and other components, managing dependencies can result in slowdown. Join Eric Minick, DevOps Evangelist & Product Management Lead, at IBM. In this presentation, he will discuss: - “Standard” continuous delivery - Challenges larger organizations have with CD - Techniques for applying continuous delivery to the largest applications Learn more about Continuous Delivery, and Deployment Automation today!

Customer Portal Inventory System Customer Accounts Credit Services Planning is complex Development work must be coordinated across teams. Release schedules aligned. Development is complex. Interfaces understood, developed & configured appropriately. Environments composed & connected. Testing complex. Are the correct versions of all applications in my environment? In which application did the bug occur? Is the bug a code issue or misconfiguration of the multi-application environment? Change Management is complex. If we pull an application from the Release what will what other applications or projects will be affected? and dozens or hundreds more…
