The concept of ""progressive delivery"" using feature flags has rapidly grown in recent years as the ""new standard"" in DevOps excellence, and for good reason. The concept of using feature flags to decouple deployment from release to deliver ""progressively"" expands the principles of continuously improving software directly into production with real users -- in a safe, controlled way. Further, feature flags provide a wide variety of safety and speed improvements within software delivery, effectively ""supercharging"" CI/CD in new ways. 

Join us to understand best practices for testing flags and for creating strong governance and approval practices.

Feature Management for Better Progressive Delivery

The modern enterprise is increasingly complex. Digital transformation mandates sometimes require implementing live changes using microservices and progressive delivery, resulting in more teams shipping features than ever before.

In this on-demand webinar, we will help you answer these fundamental questions that help you link your CI/CD processes to business outcomes:
- Do you have the necessary visibility into pipelines and processes?
- Will your current delivery models provide the needed flexibility to continuously scale across an enterprise platform?
- What are some best practices of a maturing transformation strategy?

Join Hope Lynch, Senior Director of Platform and Technology Strategy at CloudBees and Howard Holton, CTO of GigaOm to learn how CI/CD maturity is critical to your transformation strategy and how to scale for future opportunities.

Why CI/CD is Critical to Your Transformation Strategy

Feature flags do a lot of great things to modernize and simplify software delivery such as decoupling deployments from releases, enabling trunk based development, and providing a “security blanket” at release with the operational “kill switch” to turn a feature off instantly if needed. Further, they simplify feature experimentation and create naturally closer feedback loops with end users.  But there are potential downsides to scaling feature flag usage across an enterprise. 

Check out our webinar, where we discuss the considerations for scaling feature flag management around testing, flag lifecycle management, and visibility of flags in builds. We cover how we’re solving these challenges using tight integrations across the CloudBees platform.

Scaling Enterprise Feature Flag Management

Securely going from code to customer - fast - is what CloudBees Software Delivery Automation is all about.
It’s about fast workflows that give developers the flexibility they want while providing the guardrails your security and compliance teams demand.  It’s about unifying workflows with a common data model to break down silos and deliver real-time end-to-end transparency. It’s about continuous, meaningful feedback loops to proactively manage risk and business outcomes.

And we’d like to show you how we do that.  

Join this face-paced demo to learn how to: 

- Drive scalable, repeatable paths to production with built-in security, governance, and compliance. 
- Assure separation of duties and access controls without stifling innovation.
- Create a modern software delivery ecosystem that seamlessly incorporates legacy and hybrid infrastructure and tools into your release processes.
- Deliver consistent value, innovation, and velocity while managing risk to connect software delivery to customer experience and business outcomes at worldwide scale.

The State of Software Delivery Automation

Declarative pipelines provide a more modern, opinionated approach to pipeline creation and management. But what are they really? What benefit do they bring to your CI/CD processes? 

In this discussion, you will discover: 
- What declarative pipelines are
- Why you should use declarative pipelines
- Best practices around creating pipelines in Jenkins

Modernizing Your Pipelines

Modern organizations rely on software delivery to accelerate business growth and digital transformation, but making those connections and understanding the WHY of that equation is a major hurdle for many decision-makers. 

Join this webinar for a discussion with Hope Lynch, Senior Director of Technology Strategy and Logan Donley, Senior Technical Evangelist, to talk about value stream management practices and leveraging release orchestration and analytics to connect the dots between software delivery performance and business performance.

Topics covered:

- How to relate software delivery to customer experience and business outcomes
- Understanding success metrics and KPIs to improve quality and speed of product delivery
- Focusing on business value and return on investment
