EMA to Host Webinar on How to Optimize DevOps Initiatives

BOULDER, Colo., May 29, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), a leading IT and data management research and consulting firm, today announced it will host a research webinar titled "Optimizing DevOps Initiatives: The View from Both Sides of the DevOps Divide," featuring Dennis Drogseth, vice president of research, IT megatrends, analytics and CMDB systems at EMA, and Steve Hendrick, research director of application management at EMA.

Drawing from a recent EMA survey of 400 global respondents, targeting North America, EMEA and Asia, and spanning development, operations, IT service management (ITSM) teams and executive IT, this webinar will address DevOps initiatives from many perspectives. Topics covered will include pipeline activities, stakeholders, technological impacts including analytics and automation, roadblocks in terms of both tools and teams, organizational perspectives, best practices, and more.

During the webinar, Drogseth and Hendrick will dive into the research results, as well as address the following questions:

    --  How are DevOps teams evolving in terms of more agile and automated
        approaches?
    --  What is the impact of DevOps on the development-operations handshake,
        and on both development and operations teams individually?
    --  What is the impact of cloud, given data showing that more than
        forty-five percent of production applications are running in the cloud,
        while production applications running in containers is expected to grow
        by nearly thirty percent by the end of 2019?
    --  What technologies are becoming most critical in accelerating DevOps
        effectiveness and why?
    --  To what degree is DevOps reshaping IT organizational models as a whole,
        and where is it converging with core requirements for governance,
        release management and optimization based on value as well as speed?

The webinar is Thursday, June 6 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern. Registration is available at http://info.enterprisemanagement.com/optimizing-devops-initiatives-webinar-pr.
