ThoughtWorks is offering a series of webinars on Continuous Delivery

Most enterprise software development has evolved to a place where releases are infrequent and occur long after features were first conceived. The day of release is a nail-biting affair for which we assemble swat teams and stand ready to scramble and fix the inevitable problems.

This has enormous impact on the businesses that we work for, making us vulnerable to nimble competitors. We are forced to predict (guess) what customers want rather than relying on real user feedback, we can't react to market changes or explore new business ideas quickly, and we end up not building the right thing for our users or at least investing too much money in something where a lighter solution would have sufficed.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Webinar #6
Customer perspectives – on the evolutionary journey to Continuous Delivery

Many companies are adopting Continuous Delivery as a practice for accelerating cycle time between “development complete” and “in production”. However, development and operations teams in these companies have faced challenges in this evolutionary journey.

Recently, ThoughtWorks conducted a customer study to understand the perspective and document the experiences of several organizations in their evolution to Continuous Delivery. The aim of the study was to document current software delivery practices, understand priorities for changing delivery and deployment processes, and identify the challenges and issues they faced in this evolution. In this webinar, we’ll summarize and share our findings. We believe that the insights from our customers will be valuable in proactively identifying and addressing issues and challenges in your own organization’s evolution to Continuous Delivery.
