2. Please note
IBM’s statements regarding its plans, directions, and intent are subject to change or
withdrawal without notice at IBM’s sole discretion.
Information regarding potential future products is intended to outline our general product
direction and it should not be relied on in making a purchasing decision.
The information mentioned regarding potential future products is not a commitment, promise,
or legal obligation to deliver any material, code or functionality. Information about potential
future products may not be incorporated into any contract. The development, release, and
timing of any future features or functionality described for our products remains at our sole
discretion.
Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in
a controlled environment. The actual throughput or performance that any user will experience
will vary depending upon many factors, including considerations such as the amount of
multiprogramming in the user’s job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration,
and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user
will achieve results similar to those stated here.

Dev environments different from

Difficult to provision test

Environment provisioning creates

11. Plan and Track
Common tools to plan and track changes across Dev and Ops
Issues
Configuration tasks are not
planned or tracked
Different tools/processes for
tracking work
Solution
Use collaborative development
tools to track and plan application
and configuration changes
Ensures work is properly planned
in the proper order
Ensures audit trail for planned
changes to environments
11
11

12. Manage Changes
Version and manage application and configuration changes
Issues
Configuration changes vary
between environments
Configuration changes are not well
managed
Release artifacts are randomly
created and applied
Solution
Version control configuration
changes as code in an SCM close to
the application changes
Version and track release artifacts
in an Artifact Library
Track release dependencies
12

13. Automate Delivery
Repeatable and reliable processes
Issues
Application deployment is
generally an unreliable, manual
process
Difficult to replicate
Slow to execute
Long delays between
deployments increases size of
change sets making problem
determination difficult
Solution
Tooling to define and configure
an automated delivery process
Reliable and repeatable delivery
process
Deploy early and often to “fail
fast” and resolve even faster
13

14. Feedback
Immediate feedback of changes
Issues
Weeks, months pass before
getting any feedback of a change (if
any)
Often cannot determine where/if a
build was deployed
Long delays in feedback makes
problem determination more
difficult
Solution
Report results of automated
delivery process directly in context
of development tools
Preserve traceability of delivery
output with build process
Report automated tests results in
a timely fashion

24. Continuous delivery for mobile
There are mobile-specific challenges in achieving continuous delivery
 Device fragmentation  Builds are pulled from app-stores vs push
 Additional governance required  Injection of app-store feedback into delivery
 Curated app-stores impose review processes process
 Device testing is difficult  Native plus back-end services required for
mobile applications
