Organizations need to innovate at speed. As software has become increasingly critical to business outcomes, delivering high quality changes quickly has become a competitive necessity. With rapidly changing applications has come a dynamic, programmable infrastructure that can meet changing business needs in the blink of an eye. In a word: Cloud.

But how do development teams take advantage of cloud resources? How do organizations coordinate application changes across clouds? Where do platform as a service tools like Bluemix from IBM fit in? Can we move quickly without losing control or quality?

Join Eric Minick, IBM DevOps Evangelist (and UrbanCode guy), as he examines best practices, and approaches for tying together cloud infrastructure, platform as a service and deployment automation to boost the responsiveness of IT as a whole.
