In the universe of software, it’s as if there are two planets: one populated by developers and the other populated by operations folks. Like a scene from Star Trek, getting folks from each planet together requires a neutral zone. But that’s the past. In the modern universe, it can call be different. The intersection of these two different worlds is a place called Developer Operations or DevOps. In this session, Brian will walk you through modern application lifecycle management where continuous is the key word: continuous integration, continuous quality, continuous deployment, and continuous feedback. You’ll see what tools Microsoft has to help you, like Team Foundation Server 2012 and System Center Operations Manager 2012 Sp1. You’ll see how you can take a single idea and get it into production on an hourly basis if you choose. So get rid of your Federation uniform and your Klingon bat'leth just be a citizen of the universe with DevOps.
