Make 2021 the year you commit to using data to drive your DevOps strategy. You might have dabbled in data before and reported on flow metrics, but you can get so much more value by really diving into the data from your software delivery pipeline.

In this interview with DevOps experts Steve Boone (LinkedIn profile) DevOps Head of Product Management HCL Software and Bryant Schuck (LinkedIn profile) Accelerate Product Manager HCL Software will discuss how you can use data to influence people, processes, and technology and build a data-driven organization.

Steve and Bryant will cover:

• Aggregating data from disjointed tools
• Using data to manage security and governance
• Foundational elements for data-first strategy development

This will be a jam-packed half hour with actionable insights on removing the guesswork from DevOps with a data-driven approach. For even more data-driven DevOps tips, download the free eBook from HCL Software DevOps.

For managers and IT team leaders who want quick literacy on DevOps – how did something born of a Twitter hashtag become a transformational force in IT departments around the world?

Get a one-hour primer from ASPE’s Chris Knotts on DevOps and why it’s important to the world of IT projects.

“DevOps,” like any buzzword, carries no agreed-upon definition and lots of misconception.

In some ways, it’s an odd and accidental term for something so significant and multifaceted. However, the underlying forces and reasons behind the DevOps movement are clear.

It’s about corporate culture shifts, IT worker empowerment, amazing new tools, cloud computing capabilities, and movement towards a new way of managing IT work: unified, agile, and oriented around the needs of the business.

Properly understood and pursued, DevOps holds the promise of higher quality operations and projects, higher IT worker retention, continuous deployment of code and products, more robust systems, higher levels of automation, and much more.

Join Chris Knotts, PMP – (LinkedIn profile) for the executive overview of the DevOps movement and what it means for IT teams everywhere.

DevOps delivery practices are being adopted across the industry, but unfortunately they’re not always built with quality assurance as a core capability.

Teams have no choice but to build a testing strategy as they go, rather than designing the culture, processes, and tools upfront. QA testing as an afterthought in an agile or CI/CD environment results in measurable inefficiencies across the entire development team; and oftentimes will directly impact the user experience with too many bugs reaching production.

Applying QA best practices to every phase of application development has the most impact on customer and employee happiness. Putting automated testing at the center of DevOps – what we call DevTestOps – yields an ROI you won’t want to ignore.

Listen as John Purcell and Christina Cardoza discuss the findings from the 2020 DevTestOps Landscape Survey.

You’ll hear about:

• Trends in CI/CD and cloud adoption
• How enterprises are tightly integrating QA into development
• Tips for understanding which automation is right for your team
• Team structures that work for the employees and for customers
