All too many discussions about DevOps conclude that the solution is an all-purpose player: developer and operations guru, complete with pager for round-the-clock duty. For most organizations that is not the way forward.
In his session at DevOps Summit, Bart Copeland, president and CEO of ActiveState Software, will discuss how to achieve the agility and speed of end-to-end automation without requiring an organization stocked with Supermen and Superwomen.
Areas addressed include:
- Application lifecycle automation
- Key requirements for full end-to-end application automation
- Your DevOps solution: Build vs. buy
- Organizational requirements to integrate development and operations
- Typical benefits from development and operations integration
Case studies of successful DevOps efforts will also be discussed.
