IBM VoiCE - 2009
ReleaseTEAM got the inside scoop!
ReleaseTEAM was pleased to participate in Rational's November 2009 VoiCE of the
Client Event (VoiCE). IBM understands the financial
constraints that clients and partners are under this year, therefore IBM
planned a "virtual event," utilizing IBM collaboration software such
as IBM Lotus Unyte Web conferencing. This
invitation-only, three-day event, hosted by Rational's Client Program
team, provided ReleaseTEAM with the opportunity to interact with Rational
Executives and Product Management leaders, and to influence the
direction of Rational Products.
ReleaseTEAM
is excited every year to participate in discussion focused on the
future of the tools we use from IBM Rational. ReleaseTEAM had one of
our key consultants in each of the major tool sessions, ClearCase,
ClearQuest and Build Forge. If you are interested in learning more
about the future of these tools, call ReleaseTEAM and ask about our
involvement with VoiCE!

CM Crossroads Feature Article
Do You Need Agents? By Bob Aiello September 1, 2009 Reprinted here with Permission
Recently, I worked with a few of my colleagues to implement an
Application Lifecycle Methodology (ALM) solution that included a full
build infrastructure that provided most of the functionality of a
Continuous Integration (CI) server. This was part of a rich and
powerful technology solution that managed all aspects of the Software
Development Lifecycle. During this effort, I realized that some of my
colleagues did not fully grasp the scope and purpose of using a build
agent.
