2 Minute Introduction of UC4 Application Release Management
Why Release Automation?
Software is the engine that drives business today. For some, it’s your core value to the marketplace. For others, it’s the operating platform that enables your business to run. Releasing new applications and application updates on a timely basis is critical to your productivity and value creation. Unfortunately, doing so is a lot easier said than done. Releasing new applications and application updates is a complex process. Within a given week it’s entirely possible you might need to release multiple applications to different platforms in multiple environments for owners with unique deployment requirements. If that weren’t challenging enough, the process is fraught with many complex dependencies between applications, operating systems, configurations, and other elements heretofore handled by the outdated practice of manual steps and numerous scripts. No wonder costs and errors are on the rise. Yes, new application release and application updates are a critically complex endeavor, but IT is still responsible for meeting “go live” dates while complying with industry regulations. There must be a better way.
