Ahead of the BEYOND20 SIXTEEN ITSM and DevOps conference in May, I was lucky enough to catch up with Sherry Chang of Intel to talk about her session; Automating Change Control.
Sherry’s session will look at how automation can transform a Change process from blocker to key enabler. During the presentation, Sherry will look at how automation can support the Standard Change model to enable more Changes to pass through the service pipeline without sacrificing effectiveness, quality or safety. For those of you who are new to the Standard Change model they are simply pre assessed, pre authorised activities that are low risk, relatively common and follow an agreed procedure or work instruction. So far so good right?
Sherry will give practical guidance on setting up your organisation to follow the Standard Change approach and will look at how these virtual quality gates can work as a more efficient approach to Change volumes over human scrutiny. As DevOps becomes the more preferred way of delivering value, Automated Governance will become more and more important in driving Continuous Delivery; Sherry’s aim is to empower attendees by sharing tips, tricks and case studies in making Change quick, effective and successful.
You want an action packed, practitioner overview of how to move to a more Continuous Delivery stream using Standard Changes.
