Introduction

Delivery of today's multi-platform applications is complex; applications have lots of moving parts that need to work together.

Frequently, separate deployment tooling exists across development teams within an organisation, including the historical use of home-grown tools. These technologies continue to work but are highly structured and contain rigid processes that do not allow for flexible changes to the environment, and do not support multi-platform deployments.

Additionally, customers are looking for better ways to manage and automate individual component deployments and incremental changes to applications, while reducing risk.
