Please note the following
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.

3. Software delivery is critical to success

86%
of companies believe software delivery
is important or critical
25%
leverage software delivery effectively today
But only…

69%
outperform
those who don’t

leverage software
delivery today

4. And a lack of continuous delivery impacts the entire
business
Costly, error prone manual
and duplicative processes
delay innovation and
impact competiveness
CHALLENGES
Risk of instability
due to managing
multiple configurations
and versions
Slow deployment
to development and test
environments leave teams
waiting and unproductive

7. Cultural challenges adopting DevOps
DeveloperOperator
Why does it take so long to get a test
environment?
I like using new open source libraries.
I’ve checked in my code now it just
needs to be deployed (easy).
Application deployment failed again
because of new libraries.
Our processes ensure environment
stability.
Development is always making bad
operational decisions.

Deployment
Enhancing Continuous Release and Deployment:
 Drive down cost by automating manual tasks,
eliminating wait-time and rework
 Speed time to market by increasing the frequency
of software delivery
 Reduce risk through increased compliance of
application deployments.
Complements our DevOps solution:
 Deliver a differentiated and engaging customer
experience by reducing time to customer feedback
 Quicker time-to-value of software-based innovation
with improved predictability and success
 Increased capacity to innovate by reducing waste
and rework in order to shift resources to high-value
activities
IBM announces the acquisition of UrbanCode Inc.
Complementing our DevOps solution, combining IBM and UrbanCode, will enable clients to
more rapidly deliver mobile, cloud, big data analytics and traditional applications.

Application Deployment Automation
Deployment of Applications across Environments
 Manage application components
and versions
 Manage environment
configuration from dev/test
through production
 Compliance: audit trails quality
gates
 Easy to use process designer
 Inventory: what is where

11. 11
Release planning and orchestration
Qualify with one question:
Do you have large monthly or quarterly releases that take
hours/days and require dozens or that hundreds of people to get on
a call?
uRelease delivers
 Plan the release day
 Execute the release
 Communicate what’s going on
 Allocate environments to releases
 Tie release back to development
Because spreadsheets
are a) terrible and b)
normal

12. Release and Deployment solutions
Deliver measureable business results
12
International Investment Firm
Driving Down Costs
Release process required considerable effort
and delayed by manually-introduced errors
 Solution: Automated release process
 Results: Cost avoidance of over $2.3M/year,
reduced release time from 2-3 days to
1-2 hours and virtually eliminated test team
“down-time”
Higher Education
Speeding Time-to-Market
Agile development teams constrained by
slow deployment to dev. and test environments
 Solution: Accelerate deployment by enabling
development teams to self deploy with
automation
 Results: Deployments cut from hours to
minutes and a greater number of servers
with fewer resources
SaaS Software Provider
Reducing Risk
Difficulty managing multiple customer
configurations and versions of software
deployed across servers
 Solution: Automate managing configuration
and version deployment
 Results: Execute customer specific releases,
reduced deployment outages by over 90%
Online Retailer
Speeding Time-to-Market
Significant delays getting application
changes to production
 Solution: Scaled up continuous deployment
 Results: Deployment time reduced by
over 95% with easy scale and deploying
to over 250 servers within 2 months
of implementation

19. Multi-tier mobile apps present specific challenges to
DevOps
Middle Tier ServerClient Tier Devices Back-end Data & Services
Mobile-specific
challenges:
Lots of device targets
Provisioning rules and
artifacts
Curated App Stores
Dependent upon
backend service
versions
The Mobile-specific challenge in DevOps is mainly:
1.Dealing with the specific issues in the Mobile Client tier
2.And subsequently coordinating separate pipelines for each
tier:
 Mobile Client
 Middleware
 Back-end data and services

20. DevOps for Mobile Pattern
Accelerate Delivery focusing on quality and user experience
One-star ratings kill companies. A fickle user base with
many competing options makes reacting to feedback
essential. Continuous Feedback and Optimization using
Tealeaf helps monitor user sentiment and usage, letting
teams react to poor feedback before it spirals
