Evaluate the mainframe-inclusive DevOps Toolchain
The speed of change has propelled organizations into the digital age—not by choice, but by necessity. How quickly your business can adapt and react to change depends upon the weakest link in your business. Your success depends on relentless and continuous improvement of your company’s digital capabilities—and on consistently getting great code and applications into production fast. To do this, companies are building DevOps toolchains that use automation to facilitate speed, quality, and productivity. Successful companies include the mainframe in these toolchains—because mainframe applications and data are among their most strategic digital assets.
Connect your mainframe to the rest of IT.
See how BMC AMI and BMC Compuware provide the complete DevOps toolchain that accelerates innovation and resiliency for the mainframe.
Striving to accelerate application development and delivery across all systems, including the mainframe? Building a robust DevOps toolchain is vital. What you need is an open ecosystem of best-of-breed software tools that integrate across platforms and are shared across teams.
Evaluating the DevOps Toolchain
Does your DevOps toolchain include automation to accelerate all manual processes and enforce process rules? Visualizations that make it easy to find and fix problems?
Functional Richness:
A DevOps toolchain is only as usefule as it's weakest link. What gaps do you have in toolchain coverage? This is an absolute constraint on the end-to-end CD process.
Completeness:
Tool-to-tool integration is a critical factor in toolchain value. Each step in the toolchain must be linked together.
Integration:
If it takes too much time and effort to learn how to use all of the features, the DevOps toolchain will lose its effectiveness.
Ease of Use:
A good toolchain must be capable of adapting to changes in technology, application partners and collaboration partners.
Adaptability:

analyze
As developers make changes in the source code there may need to be concurrent development workstreams with multiple versions of code in flight. End-to-end tracking is required to show every action that affects or impacts code running at any level. At the same time, Developers need to quickly understand unfamiliar or complex mainframe applications, so they'll need a visual representation of both the code structure and logic.
