In HP has announced enhanced offerings that increase collaboration between development, testing, infrastructure and operations teams, helping organizations break down IT silos so they can quickly deliver high-quality, innovative applications for hybrid and cloud environments.
The updated versions of HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) and HP Performance Center (PC) enable organizations to drive enterprise innovation through the continuous delivery of applications with new Lab Management Automation and Continuous Application Performance Delivery features.
Organizations are under continuous pressure to deliver innovative applications that drive results. At the same time, organizations need their applications to adapt to changing needs throughout their life cycle. For example, application performance may change as users interact with applications in the cloud or on mobile devices.
To achieve the continuous delivery of high-quality applications, organizations are adopting DevOps, a set of software delivery practices that stress better communication and collaboration between application development, testing, infrastructure and operations teams. DevOps helps unify IT silos through a set of common standards and automation practices, enabling continuous delivery of applications and services that adapt to changing enterprise needs.
To improve executive visibility into the application development life cycle, HP is introducing enhancements to the HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) 11.5 platform. The new offering provides preconfigured reports with on-going information about application progress. In addition, HP ALM 11.5 is integrated with HP Enterprise Collaboration software, which enables social media style, context-based conversations between key stakeholders across the application life cycle.
With this new offering, enterprises can:
- Make faster and more accurate decisions through better collaboration among application delivery teams. Teams can now work together on requirements, create RSS feed alerts and support progress discussions on development status, test runs and defects.
- Improve developer efficiency with the enhanced HP Application Lifecycle Intelligence 2.6, a key component of HP ALM that adds support for Gitan open-source version control systemand source-code management software, in addition to existing development tools and integrations.
