[session] DevOps in an Open and Heterogeneous World By @Flint_Brenton | @DevOpsSummit #DevOps

Strategies for unifying a continuously changing, fragmented and disparate set of technologies and processes

DevOps in an Open and Heterogeneous World

Keeping pace with advancements in software delivery processes and tooling is taxing even for the most proficient organizations. Point tools, platforms, open source and the increasing adoption of private and public cloud services requires strong engineering rigor - all in the face of developer demands to use the tools of choice. As Agile has settled in as a mainstream practice, now DevOps has emerged as the next wave to improve software delivery speed and output. To make DevOps work, organizations must focus on what is most relevant to deliver value, reduce IT complexity, create more repeatable agile-based processes and leverage increasingly secure and stable, cloud-based infrastructure platforms.

In his session at @DevOpsSummit at 18th Cloud Expo, Flint Brenton, CEO of CollabNet, will outline strategies for unifying a continuously changing, fragmented and disparate set of technologies and processes within common community architecture. Attendees will learn how building a unified DevOps architecture that provides contextual oversight of tools and platforms can help organizations better align Agile and DevOps processes to IT infrastructure, and the need to continuously refine and improve the overall software delivery lifecycle.
