During this webcast we will dicsuss how Software Production Automation is the perfect complement to a
dynamically provisioned virtual infrastructure and how using virtual machines helps to both reduce IT costs and
makes more efficient use of resources in the software development
environment.
Enterprises everywhere are beginning to see the benefits of virtual machines in reducing IT infrastructure costs and eliminating “server sprawl.” But the software development tools and processes that run in those environments are largely manual, disconnected, and difficult to manage. This is particularly true in the build and test, or “software production” phases of development; though these tasks consume the majority of computing resources (build servers, test labs, etc.), they are typically script-driven, disconnected, and not automated.
