Companies are looking for ways to get to the +'continuous' state - continuous integration, continuous delivery, and +continuous deployment. A new approach and methodology is needed to +provide infrastructure on-demand with close to zero wait time. The +cloud is the logical place to look for a solution, however, existing +IaaS solutions solve only part of the problem and are not built for +developers and testers. Vertical-based cloud solutions are now +becoming available to address specific business problems. In the +dev/test world, new technology enables rapid testing and continuous +delivery. This new technology is available for “new” development +organizations adopting unconventional processes, as well as +development organizations dealing with older, traditional technology +like MSSQL, Oracle, AD etc. The new paradigm will not only reduce the +tension between IT and development, but will also enable collaboration +between co-located or distributed teams. We will present and discuss +the new methodology and technology used to solve the aforementioned +problems and share best practices. From this presentation, attendees +will learn about: + + * The "new paradigm" for facilitating agile application development + * Best practices for development and QA teams to effectively do ‘continuous development' + * Alternatives to waiting for IT to set up your infrastructure that won’t get you in hot water + * Methods for ensuring testing accuracy across your entire dev/test organization + +**Speaker:** + +Anand Rudrabhatla is a Product Manager at CloudShare.
