3. The Big Challenge
o Economic environment
o Business pressure
o “Always on, always new”
consumer expectation
o Growth in # applications
o Growth in # releases

4. XebiaLabs Enterprise Continuous Delivery Platform

5. Enterprise Continuous Delivery Challenges
o Keeping track of the “build to production” cycle
for releases
o Creating, managing and de-provisioning
middleware environments - not just individual
machines
o Accelerating your application testing and
increasing coverage and quality
o Gaining an end-to-end view from requirements
and code to test and deployment logs and
monitoring statistics for insight and auditing
o “Closing the loop”: gathering feedback from
across the pipeline and incorporating it into the
next feature set as well as optimizing the pipeline

6. Enterprise Deployment Challenges
o Handling expanding and dynamic virtual infrastructure
o Maintaining consistent configuration across environments
and preventing configuration drift
o Capitalizing on existing investment and continuing to meet
SLAs
o Increasing reliability through standardized deployment
procedures
o Reducing reliance on experts and time wasted for creation
and maintenance of deployment steps and manual plan/
workflow orchestration
o Ensuring audit and release management requirements and
procedures are followed
Ø 70% of organizations give their deployment a failing grade!

7. Deployit: Fully Automated Deployments
Core principles
o Scalable and Self-adapting
o Standardized, fully-automated orchestration
o Integration with best-of-breed solutions
Key benefits
o No components or configuration required on target servers
through unique agentless technology
o Per-setting configuration comparison across environments
with automatic versioning and “tracking through time”
o Seamless integrations with Jenkins, TFS, Bamboo, Puppet,
EC2, vSphere, JIRA, Remedy and many more
o Extensive out-of-the-box deployment steps and fully
automated orchestration mean no more scripting or manual
“flow maintenance” for each separate scenario
o Define and track release gates to ensure compliance with
your Release Management guidelines
