While many tech startups have adopted modern DevOps practices, mid-size and large enterprises are still barely scratching the surface. How do you start this journey on the right footing? In this webinar we discuss DevOps and what it really means when it comes to implementing and managing it for complex application architectures. In this session you can expect to learn about: The pitfalls organizations typically encounter as they deploy DevOps A practical approach to implementing DevOps at scale for an entire organization Managing dozens of application environments to certify through your pipeline How automated testing platforms, such as Sauce Labs, can be integrated in this process Using case studies and real-world experiences, we cover how to move beyond the first project to get all of your Dev and Test teams to embrace DevOps concepts. We also run a live demo.

9. Static Test Environments
• Setup once (manually)
• Resources are pre-
allocated
• WOMM
• Not repeatable
• Fixed configuration

10. Shifting to Dynamic Environments
(Sandboxes)

11. Static Vs. Dynamic Environments
STATIC
• Setup once (manually)
• Resources are pre-allocated
• WOMM
• Not repeatable
• Fixed configuration
DYNAMIC (Sandboxes)
• Resources allocated on demand and
reclaimed automatically
• Can select what’s saved between
sessions
• Repeatable
• Flexible configuration
• Require orchestration

12. Orchestration and Blueprinting Make Dynamic
Environments Repeatable

13. Dynamic Environments Enable Self-Service

20. Case Study: Global Manufacturer
Digital Transformation to Sustain Competitive Edge
• Distributed R&D across
several countries
• Enterprise Scale
Development (100+
developers and testers)
• Main use case: production
and dev/test in the public
cloud (Microsoft Azure)

21. DevOps Pain Points
• Scalability and maintainability
• Release velocity vs. quality assurance
• Control cloud consumption (IT)
• Enforcing standards

22. Technical Accomplishments (phase 1)
• Blueprint and standardize
environments for three main use cases
relevant for the SCRUM teams
• Remove dependency on static
environments and the overhead of
maintaining them

building block based orchestration platform.
• Integrated environments with other eco-
system tools
