Trend 4: Virtualization

Trend 5: Embrace Agile

Paradigm, Cultural Shift Requires retooling of existing developer services Many different tools, often not integrated Traceability throughout ALM lifecycle Meaningful, Decision oriented Analytics Complexity in Agile Infrastructure maintenance

Accelerate Agile Adoption with Integrated Tools in the Cloud

Essence of Agile

Traditional Deliberate decisions, longer feedback loop Transparency through project manager Predictability through contract

Agile Shorter, nested feedback loops Transparency through Agile practices Predictability through timeboxing

Time-Boxing

Contract Scope / functionality is a contract, scope creep Dream to have time, cost, and quality to be fixed Continuous scope, time, and cost creep Adversarial relationship between business and IT

Time-Boxing Time, Cost, and Quality are fixed Scope / Functionality flexible Continuous prioritization and re-prioritization of scope and function Collaborative and Team mentality between business and IT

Agile Management Tools

Quick, easy way to manage tasks and backlog item Drag and drop based on priorities Daily, Weekly adjustments of priorities Self-estimating of hours remaining User Stories, Epic and Themes Just enough documentation on requirements and design

Feedback is King
Developers need feedback on their code through continuous inspection and continuous integration Product needs feedback from Product owners, stakeholders and customers Feedback creates product that people want

Reduce Feedback Cycle through Automation

Agile Feedback Reduce Dev and Ops Divide

Dev Team
Needs to deploy frequently to get feedback Require flexibility for ad hoc deployment Wants least path of resistance

Ops Team
Needs to keep infrastructure passwords secure Needs to audit who did what Needs controlled environment for reliability and security Process and Schedule driven

Automation Enables One Click Deploy

Trend 6: Innovation On and Off the Job

Hackathon

Todays Application Development Challenges

Limited project level business agility Multiple, redundant tools in multiple locations Lack of enterprise scalability and visibility

Why is Development in the Cloud Important?

Quality, Visibility, Traceability 75% Cost Efficiencies Best Practices and a helping hand 25-75% Time-to-Market Improvement

Cloud-Based Development Becoming Predominent

Other Responses Require secure multi-site access (10) Allows ability to access source code outside of corporate firewall (4) Simplicity of setup & maintenance (4) Use as a testing environment (3) Inter-university academic collaboration (2) Secure backups (2) Our company is to small to host our own server (2) The code was already on CVSDude (1) Lack of fixed valid IP address (1) Software as a Service (1) Trac (1)

The #1 reason why people outsource to CVSDude is for risk management and data security purposes In addition, most customers use CVSDude to reduce costs and focus on core competencies

Is the Cloud Really Cheaper Than Doing It Yourself?

How many people hours does your organiza1on spend each month maintaining source control?
0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 87 hours / mo.

In-house tech support

Installing & patching software

69 hours / mo.

Bug-fixing & trouble shooting

Conclusions

As the software industries mature, barriers are falling Cloud-based solutions are reducing costs of entry, raising the performance and quality bar, and bringing together Dev and Ops Early adopters of the cloud have gained an unfair advantagefirst recognized by entrepreneurs, now by Enterprise Next comes moving the entire application lifecycle into the cloud, which would commoditize dev infrastructure
