Three ways IT can team up with mobile application developers

Source – searchmobilecomputing.techtarget.com Today, advancements in monitoring, management and automation software abstract much of the physical IT infrastructure away. As a result, IT departments no longer manage servers, networks and storage separately — at least not to the extent they once did. These components are all part of a software-defined data center that depends less on humans and more on computer code. IT roles are evolving in response to this new approach. There are fewer specialists tasked with monitoring, maintaining and

Database DevOps contradictions snarl enterprise IT automation

Source – searchitoperations.techtarget.com For many companies, the words database DevOps present a contradiction in terms. Database DevOps initiatives occur in two areas of a company’s IT automation pipeline — the preproduction test bed and the production deployment process. And both environments raise their own set of tricky technical questions. In DevOps for database test environments, organizations must quickly spin up system clones to offer data that accurately reflects the production environment, while protecting sensitive corporate information. On the other hand, database changes in

Snapshot management tool adds intelligent data management

Depending on who you ask, however, snapshots are either a boon or a bane. We cheer snaps when they simplify backup, replacing the time-consuming process of replicating data on a file-by-file or row-by-row basis to a target volume. Creating snapshots has certainly become faster and more flexible, with the latest evolution

Automation is not DevOps

Source – dev.to A few years ago, if you would have asked me to define DevOps, my answer would have sounded something like “Mumble mumble automation, mumble, automation, mumble mumble, infrastructure-as-code, mumble mumble, strategery.” Thinking that DevOps equated to automation had mostly to do with the fact that most of the DevOps people I talked to and articles I read really only spoke about automation with only indirect references to anything else. Implementing automation is definitely a part of what it
