Mobile to mainframe - The Challenges and Best Practices of Enterprise DevOps IBM UrbanCode Products
Delivering software is complex. Systems being developed are made up of multiple components, which in turn interact with other systems, services, application servers, data sources and invocations of 3rd party systems. In an Enterprise this complexity is further enhanced by the cross-platform nature of the infrastructure typical enterprises have. While the customers may be interacting with Systems of Engagement using Mobile and Web Apps, the core capabilities of the enterprise that the customers access are in Systems of Record that are running on large datacenters and more than likely Mainframe systems. Keeping these complex systems up and running and constantly updated with the latest capabilities is a task that requires constant coordination between the lines of business, various cross-platform development, QA and operations teams.
DevOps addresses these development and deployment challenges. The goal of DevOps is to align Dev and Ops by introducing a set of principles and practices such as continuous integration and continuous delivery. Cross-platform enterprise Systems take the need for these practices up a level due to their inherent complexity and distributed nature. Such systems need even more care in applying DevOps principles as there are multiple platforms to be targeted, in a coordinated manner, each with its own requirements, quirks, and nuanced needs. This talk takes a look at the DevOps challenges specific to Cross-platform Enterprise Systems and present Best Practices to address them.

RDz for DevOps Webcast Series: Implementing Continuous Integration with RDzSusan Yoskin
How do you improve code quality and achieve continuous integration in a mainframe environment? Continuous integration testing, by shifting defect detection and resolution earlier in the delivery cycle (shift left approach), speeds up development while increasing quality and time to market. This session focuses on the development and test phase of the DevOps lifecycle. It centers on development using Rational Developer for System z (RDz), including debug, code review and code coverage. It discusses test automation using a customized zUnit testing framework in conjunction with automated mainframe SCM build and deploy. Keith Allen, IBM Software Sales European IOT Team Lead - DevOps for Enterprise z Systems, and Luis Carlos Silva, IBM EM Continuous Integration Lead and Product Line Manager, will take you through this methodology.
Centralized systems management: Dell Management Plug-In for VMware vCenter vs...Principled Technologies
Leveraging the power of the Lifecycle Controller 2 and Dell Management Plug-In for VMware vCenter, Dell made server management simpler and faster in our test scenarios. In our tests, using Dell vCenter integration saved time and required fewer steps when compared to using similar HP vCenter integration solutions. Dell’s approach can potentially offer an organization dramatic savings in time and effort over the server lifecycle.

Devops - Continuous delivery patterns with serverless stackcksiva09
The key pattern introduced in continuous delivery is the deployment pipeline. This pattern emerged from several projects where teams were struggling with complex, fragile, painful manual processes for preparing testing and production environments and deploying builds to them. Team already worked to automate a significant amount of the regression and acceptance testing, but it was taking weeks to get builds to integrated environments for full regression testing, and our first deployment to production took an entire weekend.
Enabling multicloud in the enterprise with DevSecOpsJosh Boyd
Core federal agencies are using multiple cloud providers to avoid vendor lock-in and optimize their workloads' infrastructure. Taking advantage of each cloud provider's strengths comes with some challenges: multicloud security and compliance, inventory tracking, resource utilization, and software delivery automation.
In this session, you'll see how Red Hat CloudForms and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, paired with Booz Allen’s Solutions Delivery Platform, addresses these challenges and brings governance to your DevOps pipeline and multicloud environment.
Between spending hours (or days!) making sure you can code and test locally and the difficulties of keeping remote environments up to date, sometimes we find ourselves falling back on "It works on my machine!". Getting rid of the difficulties in making new development environments and maintaining testing infrastructure is really key to banishing the dreaded phrase. In this session, we'll take you through some of the recent tools and techs that will not only make your life easier but will mean you never have to say "works on my machine" ever again.
In the digital age, engineers leverage automation tools to boost productivity, enhance efficiency, and save time. These software solutions enable real-time identification of risks and vulnerabilities, along with streamlined refactoring processes. Market research indicates that approximately 35% of companies currently utilize testing automation tools, with another 29% planning to adopt them in the future. Automation has become a prevalent topic of discussion, driven by its ability to accelerate work, increase intelligence, and improve overall productivity.
Microservices have become a trendy development strategy. Hosting and running such services used to be pretty painful… but here it comes Service Fabric! Let's take a closer look at this platform, it's different development models and all the features it offers. And not only for microservices!

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
