Learn more about how to assess and transform your culture and practices as part of modernizing your software development. We share the patterns of successful team organization, agile and extreme programming practices, as well as modern product management and user centric design principles.

Digital transformation is often a multi-year and multi-million-dollar journey for large enterprises. Adopting the ‘Agile way’ is no longer a question; it’s the norm. 

At VMware Tanzu Labs, we recently concluded an engagement, where we advised a large Australian organisation against following their program plan. The transformation program had a valid business objective and the support of its executives. When we partnered with the customer, the program was already three years into its journey. Projects got delivered on time with cutting edge technologies, modern programming languages, and teams with the right skills. How did the organisation still end up sinking millions of dollars without any return on investment? What went wrong in the middle? How did the right objectives yield poor results?

In this talk from AgileAus21, we describe the path to stay clear of the common pitfalls and roadblocks and show you the simple, no-nonsense, buzzword-free way to build great software that delivers value without embarking on a massive program of work.

Digital Transformation: Why Well-Planned Programs Fail and What to Do Instead

Software development teams across every industry are tasked with delivering applications, APIs and experiences that provide value to hundreds, thousands, or even millions of users every day.     How can they confidently ensure that their product functions consistently and is compliant with the quality and security standards that are important to them?       Enter the CI/CD pipeline: a core tool that any software development team can use to automate the build, test, and deploy cycle for their product from code all the way to production.       In order to build the ideal CI/CD pipeline, organisations must adopt the DevOps values and practices.       Join our speakers from VMware Tanzu as they discuss the relationship between DevOps and CI/CD, and how a well-designed pipeline can bring value to your organisation.

Building The Ideal CI/CD Pipeline

Should we ever prioritize software development work that doesn’t add user or business value? Developers advocate for planned refactors, fixing flaky tests, and enhancing CI pipelines to reduce development toil. Yet, product managers often struggle to justify this type of work to business stakeholders. Luckily, everyone involved in modern app development wants to move fast and be happy! 
 
In this webinar, developers and product managers will learn how Tech Debt Audits can be used to bridge communication gaps, helping cross-functional teams prioritize work to reduce the tech debt that matters most.

- How to run a Tech Debt Audit and address unhealthy practices
- How to pay down your tech debt using tools such as Spring boot, Spring boot tests, Concourse, and VMware Tanzu
- Tips for effective collaboration between developers and PMs to prioritize what tech debt needs to be addressed

Tech Debt Audit: How to Prioritize and Reduce the Tech Debt that Matters Most

When people think about agile software development it’s often in a context of colocated teams working through problems and building features in an iterative way. This is how digitally native companies work and it’s broadly what all organizations have been marching towards.

But the world has changed and in the wake of Coronavirus, employees and organizations everywhere are scrambling to stay safe and constrain the spread of this novel virus by working remotely. This can be daunting to say the least. How do you maximize the productivity of remote-only software teams? Can teams share knowledge and ramp-up new people efficiently? Can they avoid siloed decision making and ensure all people have a voice regardless if they’re introverted or extroverted?

VMware Pivotal Labs is a recognized leader in agile software development for over 25 years. We have successfully delivered amazing business outcomes using distributed teams for hundreds of customers. Join us on March 26 to hear practical advice, processes, practices, and enabling technologies that we’ve developed for fully remote software development. Learn how to incorporate a few occasional "remotes," maintain teams split across regions and timezones, and even how to adopt an "everyone's remote" approach to your distributed agile teams.

How to Build Awesome Software with Fully Remote and Distributed Teams

There is a misconception that “agile” means faster delivery, however it really means being able to quickly react and respond. In this 4-part webinar series, we’ll be sharing some of the ways we help our clients adopt modern, agile practices for building software, so that they can respond faster to changing customer needs.

Measuring how a product performs in users hands is the ultimate validation of user and business value.

Part 4: In this webinar we will discuss why, once a software-based product is in the wild, user behaviour metrics become a critical source of insights and learning. We'll review the AARRR Analytics Framework (a.k.a. Metrics for Pirates) and discuss how the implementation of user activation and user retention metrics varies, depending on the type of product and business model.

[Tanzu Talks] Transforming the Right App, Before You Transform The App Right

For all the talk of digital transformation, most organizations still struggle to get new code released into production. In fact, according to a Forrester survey of developers, 60% of respondents stated they release applications twice a year or less. How is software going to transform your business if it only changes twice a year? 

It turns out that getting software into production frequently benefits business in a number of ways. Developers are more productive. Revenue-generating applications get features to generate more revenue. Security patches are less disruptive and downtime costs decrease. 

In a recent study, commissioned by Pivotal (now part of VMware), Forrester Consulting quantified many of these types of improvements in a Total Economic Impact™ Study of Pivotal Platform (now part of VMware Tanzu). In this webinar, you’ll learn about the stringent methodology used by Forrester Consulting to calculate a 142% three year ROI for Pivotal Platform from our guest speaker  Sarah Musto of Forrester Consulting. You’ll also hear best practices from Kyle Campos, SVP of SaaS Ops at Smarsh.

Join RabbitMQ engineer Gerhard Lazu to learn how:

● To start using the new metrics system in RabbitMQ 3.8
● Developers know when your application is using a RabbitMQ anti-pattern
● Developers who use Quorum Queues can understand the mechanics better  
● Operators know when a RabbitMQ deployment is imbalanced
● Erlang experts can unlock deeper RabbitMQ insights
● To share your context when you come across a bug

We look forward to you joining us.

In-memory caching is not new technology. But it takes on renewed significance with cloud-native, distributed applications. Modern day caching can alleviate the performance and availability challenges associated with your most important modern apps.

In this webinar, we will explore why caching should be a vital part of your distributed systems. You’ll learn how: 

● A highly available cache can keep apps online serving data, and protect against data loss, in the event of infrastructure failure. 
● An elastic cache like PCC can adjust to the needs of your applications. Elasticity at the data layer is crucial for the elasticity of the entire system.
● A caching layer can reduce the adverse efforts of network latency on system performance.
● Enterprises use PCC alongside Pivotal Platform. We’ll also examine the day-to-day experience of managing the caching service.
● PCC can support caching patterns for Spring and .NET microservices.

Join us to find out how caching can improve the performance of your essential customer-facing systems.
