NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 05/14/13 — , the leader in Application Performance Management (APM), end-to-end Big Data Analytics and IT Operations Analytics (ITOA), announced today it was highlighted in the newest analyst report from Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) titled “.”
Authored by Research Director for Application Management, Julie Craig, the April 2013 report combines extensive market research, vendor profiles, and customer case studies to explore how the rise of agile development and iterative deployment is redefining how businesses take applications and services to market.
The report evaluated 12 vendors across the six DevOps different phases and found that only four provided value propositions that span the entire application lifecycle. OpTier was one of the four, alongside IBM, who delivered capabilities across the full DevOps spectrum and was lauded for its innovative (APM) and Big Data Analytics (BDA) solutions.
DevOps, a coalescence of development and operations, has emerged as a modern-day software development approach governing the communication, collaboration, and integration between software engineers and IT operations professionals. The evolution of DevOps and its increasing importance in the software sector is a result of contemporary market demands that place a premium on accelerated time-to-market cycles.
The DevOps cycle spans six phases including Assess, Design, Develop, Test, Deploy/Release, and Manage. The new DevOps paradigm, according to the report, has “evolved as a far more cross-functional, collaborative, and lifecycle-focused activity than traditionally understood.” This model is far more effective for supporting the agile practices and business criticality that characterize today-s application delivery systems.
“One of OpTier-s key differentiators is its value proposition across the application lifecycle,” said . “Because of the application visibility delivered by the APM and solutions, OpTier showed very well in EMA-s recent DevOps research report.”
