• Global Partner Network

30. Our Mission
To offer the Enterprise one Best Practice for Application
Release Automation to achieve:
• Accelerated Time to Market
• Reduced Operational Expenditure
• One robust Deployment Best Practice for Release
Teams, Development Teams and CIOs

31. What is Application Release Automation?
“Application Release Automation is the process of automating the application
release lifecycle, from build to production, to achieve better resource utilization
and speed to market for applications”
Companies should evaluate release automation software to reduce
manual efforts and scripts for deploying application software across
and within ALM environments. Ronnie Colville, Donna Scott - Senior Analysts

37. Continuous³?
• Fewer than 5% have release teams
focused on continuous delivery
“teams frustrated with slow software delivery
and their release management process”
“many frustrating issues that keep teams from
releasing software with visibility,
predictability, and speed”
"Release Management And The 'First Rule Of Holes'", J.S. Hammond
“Five Ways To Streamline Release Management”

44. Algorithm-based Application Release Automation
• Inherent scalability to today’s and tomorrow’s IT landscape and Agile and
cloud developments
• Correctly emphasizes the main goal of releases: deployed applications
• Separation of purpose and implementation
• Shield users from platform-dependent complexity
• Zero maintenance

45. 6 Reasons to Move to Integrated Bamboo & Deployit
• Continuous³ - delivery, testing, deployment
• Improve business visibility
• Increase shared ownership
• Increase service quality and reliability
• Accelerate feature time-to-market
• Empower the Team

46. Continuous³
• More testing, more quality
• Incremental improvement over big bang
• Continuous delivery: always have a release
package available
• Continuous testing: always have a release
package with a known quality level
• Continuous release: automatically make verified
features available to customers
• Automatically deliver business value!

47. Improve business visibility
• What is running where?
• At what stage in the release lifecycle is my
business service?
• Which conditions have been/still need to be met?
• What is my success rate for service releases?
• Am I improving service turnaround time and
release quality?

48. Increase service quality and reliability
• Increased reproducibility through automated
application and environment configuration
management
• Reduce failure rate for environment promotions
• Ensure test environments match production
• Use one standardized deployment process
across all environments

49. Increase shared ownership
• Single interaction point for developers and
operations
• Improved collaboration through joint insight
• Shared responsibilities (e.g. application artifacts
vs. configuration) backed by role-based access
control
• Stepwise transition from split application vs.
configuration to automated packaging of entire
application/(virtual) applicance

50. Accelerate feature time-to-market
• Speed up releases through delta deployments
• Similar to incremental builds
• Automatically adjust to environment changes
(auto-scaling, new versions etc.)
• Integration with build, release etc. tooling for
continuous toolchain

51. Empower the Team
• “Self-service” model
• Same process across environments and
technologies
• No reliance on scarce specialists
• Everyone in the Team can deploy if required
• Shared ownership, shared responsibility
• “Become enabler of change”
