XebiaLabs designed this update to help enterprises extend beyond their DevOps pilot initiatives. Planning is a critical component of successful implementation. Enterprises typically focus on automation release processes later in their gameplan. The deeper teams get into DevOps, the more complex it can get. Sometimes early practices don’t scale well across your wide array of teams or across many releases. XebiaLabs wants to help.

Automation and simplifying complex tasks is one of the core tenants of DevOps. This release introduces new ways to manage large, complex releases and microservices at scale. Attractive dashboards and simple visual management is a feature that should not be overlooked. The more tools that teams implement to increase productivity, the more confusion can occur without the right dashboard. XebiaLabs wants to provide clients with a clear understanding of their resources.

This update also makes it easier to track release template changes and manage templates at scale. The release states, “While the software has always automatically tracked template changes for compliance and auditing purposes, it now allows teams to save specific versions of a template and manage them as they would manage code in version control.” Having a detailed history and understanding is crucial to making the right decisions going forward.

DevSecOps has been a hot topic lately. XebiaLabs certainly knows this, as this release adds security, quality, risk analysis, and compliance embedded into each release. Custom code compliance checks are invaluable for DevOps. This automated security function allows DevOps teams to justifiably put security out of mind. XebiaLabs also applies its special risk scoring calculations to assess any task failure, teams will be able to act quickly when quality is sub-par.
