Streamline application deployment

ChangeGear Release Management

Organisations' ever-increasing reliance on IT systems presents a challenge for deploying applications, hardware components, software updates and patches without disrupting mission-critical services. Release Management replaces ad- hoc implementation efforts with a structured, repeatable and systematic process, thereby keeping production environments stable, efficient and auditable, and avoiding costly downtime.

Following ITIL best practices, the ChangeGear Release Management product reduces risk by centralising control, increasing visibility and automating manual tasks that can introduce error into the deployment process. ChangeGear Release Management streamlines planning, implementation, approval and communication for increased deployment reliability, enhanced productivity, system compliance and overall deployment success.

A systematic approach to Release Management delivers multiple benefits:

Automate deployment tasks
The ITIL-based workflow enables release managers to coordinate, monitor and automate deployment tasks for a streamlined deployment cycle.

Minimise deployment risks
ITIL best practices for planning, impact analysis and testing increase the visibility of the deployment process ensuring reliable, secure and stable production environments.

Release Workflow
Anticipate and alleviate deployment problems
A combination of dynamic impact analysis and proactive rollback planning enables IT staff to anticipate and alleviate any potential deployment problems before they occur.

Improve regulatory compliance
ChangeGear Release Management tracks all deployment activities automatically - providing an audit trail for regulatory compliance and for continued improvement of the Release Management process.

Reduce operation costs
Replacing inefficient and often disorganized release practices with ChangeGear Release Management's structured, consistent and repeatable workflow results in cost savings and more efficient operation.
