• Provides cross-platform Continuous Delivery for mainframe
• Lack of automation and visibility means mainframe code
deployment is often #1 hindrance to Continuous Delivery
• ISPW and XL Release enables large enterprises to overcome
this common hindrance to digital agility
• As a result, large enterprises can
– Better compete in today’s dynamic digital markets
– Empower new generation of less mainframe-experienced staff

Editor's Notes
- Introduce Compuware
World’s leading mainframe-focused company
Tools in all areas in DevOps chain for the mainframe
Explain “mainstreaming the mainframe”
Why it’s important
How to do it (i.e. helping integrations)
Deploy being a bottleneck
Addition of ISPW – can now do Deploy
Provide things to edit/debug code (speed up process)
But you have to deploy and get them into production just as fast
Not just mainframe; it’s distributed and mainframe
Highlight why XebiaLabs is our partner
- Here’s how it works with ISPW
- Also work with other SCMs with Endevor
Example of how we work with Endevor

Highlight why XebiaLabs is our partner
- XebiaLabs – is focused on Enterprise DevOps.
We’re recognized as a #1 ranked technology by both Gartner and Forrester Research. Enterprises are now starting to embrace Continuous Delivery with about 8-10% transforming their businesses.
What makes us unique is our laser focus on DevOps and Continuous delivery. We’ve been in the space for 5 years – well before the terms were widely recognized.
We not only have the products to delivery at any scale, but we also have a staff FULL of industry experts ready to help coach our clients.
- Analysts say you need to do this, now
We also know that you happen to also have a business to run…so the good news is that implementing (the first steps of) this can be done pretty quickly, in a very ROI-positive way
- There are a number of phases in modern SDLC with many products used across each. XLR can help you manage the entire process regardless of what other tools you use. Start manual, automate, measure, control, all from the same tool.
- Mark – set up the situation (explain what he’s doing, why, but I’m just a part)
Tim – XL Release (shows broader situation and how things fit together)
Mark – if errors, here’s what you’re doing
- ISPW Deploy works with multiple SCM tools (ISPW, Endevor, etc.)
