Implementing DevOps Process Change - Fireside Chat Next Wed. Apr. 29

sherly, Many people recognize DevOps as an enormous benefit — faster application deployment, automated toolchains, better cooperation across groups. However, less appreciated is the journey enterprise IT groups need to make to achieve this outcome. The plain fact is that established IT processes reflect a very different set of goals: stability, infrequent change, hands-on administration, and alignment with ITIL. In next week's fireside chat webcast, Andi Mann, VP in the Office of the CTO at CA Technologies, joins Bernard Golden to discuss how enterprise IT organizations can implement change to achieve DevOps outcomes. Register to attend the webcast. Date: Wednesday, April 29, 2015 Time: 10 am PT / 1 pm ET / 6 pm GMT Format: 60 min. with real-time Q&A #CLFchat This discussion will cover topics such as: How does DevOps get started in an IT organization: top-down or bottom-up? What kind of benefits can DevOps deliver? Who should lead a DevOps initiative: Dev or Ops? Does DevOps require new tools or can an IT organization leverage existing infrastructure tooling?
