CM Crossroads Feature Article
Behaviorally Speaking - Standards and Frameworks
December 14, 2010
By Bob Aiello
Reprinted here with Permission
This week I was
chatting with a colleague of mine who is an expert in Configuration
Management - with many years of experience implementing build and
release management frameworks. I was shocked when he mentioned that he
had never really read any of the industry standards and frameworks and
had simply learned CM from the trenches. I am a trench level guy
myself, but I was further shocked when he asked me if I thought CM
gurus should just go off and learn standards on their own.
This
discussion made me rethink whether or not standards are really
important. Read on if you would like to take a cold hard look at what
industry standards bring to the table and whether or not they are worth
your time to study and implement.

 Cloud computing is happening in a big way. Attend our webinar to learn more....
No
wonder that cloud computing is hot: infrastructure-as-a-service,
resource elasticity, and user self-service promises huge returns.
Software development and test's need for scalable, flexible,
compute-intensive IT infrastructure makes it a great customer for the
benefits of cloud computing. Whether it is vast clusters for testing,
dozens of machines to run ALM tools, or the incessant requests for
"just one more box," development teams are always asking for something
and it is always changing. Because of these unique needs as well
as security concerns, many enterprises are turning first to building a
private cloud -- run by IT, used by development -- within their own
firewall.
Attendees of this webinar will learn: -A blueprint for creating a private development cloud -How workflow automation and resource management allow development teams to effectively use a private cloud infrastructure -How build-test-deploy tasks can be run in a shared environment -January 26th, 11am PST Click HERE to register!
