The CIO’s Updated Priorities for Application Delivery and Continuous Testing
Today’s leading CIOs understand that, in order to accelerate digital business, they need to accelerate application delivery, reduce risk and enable end-to-end business transformation. However, implementing agile via a one-size-fits-all approach without tailoring it to the specific needs of product teams risks failure and can be counterproductive. As they upgrade legacy software and expand their offerings, CIOs must pay careful attention to business alignment in order to maximize the value of their applications, advance key digital initiatives and remain agile in the face of constant change.
Join this town hall to discuss best practices around:
- Scaling agile and DevOps methods across your IT architecture to accelerate application delivery
- Using advanced test automation to both reduce overhead with traditional software testing and minimize production outages
- Removing the hurdles to cloud adoption and migration and charting the route to optimization
