According to CloudBees, SDM defines software delivery as a core business process and is focusing on challenges such as the ability to connect tools and processes in a way that provides value. The CloudBees SDM platform is designed to help companies embrace, not replace, tools. 

Integrated capabilities will include: 

  • A central view of all product and feature development
  • Ability to create policies that trigger actions 
  • Ability to create reports related to development efficiency, contributions and progress
  • Real-time insights into on-time delivery of features
  • Real-time value stream management for modelling and visualizing the software delivery process
  • A flexible application framework for linking tools together in the toolchain

“Integrating and embracing an open ecosystem of DevOps tools is part of our DNA,” said Moritz Plassnig, senior vice president cloud and general manager for Software Delivery Management, CloudBees. “With these integrations, we further enable customers to embrace their tools of choice in order to get maximum value out of their software development and delivery efforts – to finally break down the silos that block them from becoming software-first companies. SDM is the backbone for advancing software delivery processes, without becoming a lock-in.”
