  • Are you drowning in a sea of software tools data?
  • Do you have reams of test past fail reports, dynamic run time testing defects, Static analysis defects, legacy JIRA backlog items, and customer reported bugs?
  • How do you make sense of all of this data?
  • If you make sense of it all how do you get all of that information to your developers?

DevOps Applied: A strategy to make sense of the proliferation of software data into a refined software development life cycle. Take the information you have, give it to the people who can make decisions about it, and drive better software quality and security.

Join Richard Jenny, (LinkedIn profile) PMP, PE, PMI-ACP veteran Program Manager and DevOps Director of Program Management at Overture Networks and Jeff Hildreth (LinkedIn profile) Territory Account Executive from Rogue Wave Software as they discuss the sources of software data and how they can be applied to the DevOps strategy of continuous improvement.
