Title:
Bridge the DevOps Gap using Rational automation tooling and MidVision Extensions
Stream:
WebSphere Application Server 3 (3)
Speakers:
David Sayers; Leigh Williamson
Abstract:
Come to this session to see how you can bridge the gap between Development and IT Operations using the Rational Automation Framework and the MidVision Extensions for WebSphere Connectivity. Learn how to Discover, Clone and Promote configurations and deployment artefacts through the release life cycle. Understand how to leverage existing tools and processes within Development (source control, build process and artefact repositories) for infrastructure management. Learn how organisations use a unified process on their 'path to production' to achieve cost savings, increase speed and reliability of introducing change, whilst reducing risk through effective governance, audit, and compliance.

This session is primarily focused on process and methodology - with practical examples using Rational tooling to manage application change into WebSphere Application Server, MQ, WebSphere Message Broker environments.
