Is DevOps Practical For Real World Enterprises?

DevOps promises tighter collaboration and consistency across the application lifecycle - from analysts, to developers to sys-admins and operations. Many wonder if it is this practical in the Enterprise where organizational hierarchies are well established and separation of duties is needed for compliance.

The truth is that while organizational divides are slow to change, real companies are delivering faster and better by fostering cooperation between development and operations while enforcing a consistent release process through environments.

Join UrbanCode's Eric Minick for a 1-hour discussion where he examines the role and limits of bridging the Dev / Ops gap in mission critical, and regulated environments. Covered topics include:

• What is this DevOps thing?
• Do sys-admins have a legitimate role in application development?
• Where can automation support the build-deploy-test-release process?
• Where does automation meet change management, approvals and process?
• Establishing an end-to-end audit trail
• Strategies for overcoming organizational structure
