So, what are the constraints?

#1 – Organization#2 – Technology

A client story #1

• Government financial agency in Croatia– z12 hardware with Linux OS– WebSphere (full profile), BPM, Filenet, DB2,

EGL/Java,…

• Business Pain to be solved: manual deployments error prone & less frequent deployments large change-sets longer testing&fixing cycles slower time-to-market unhappy customers …

• „After we introduce this UrbanCode Deploy thing…. What will be my job?” (N.N., WebSphere admin, agency Ops department...)

A client story #2

• Government Data Center, running Tax, Customs, Elections,…– zOS and Linux on System Z – On the road to Multi-speed IT…– RTC (used for Systems of Engagement for details see session #1391), RFT– SoE: WebSphere Portal, Mobile, BPM, IIB, DataPower,… – SoR: large EGL/Cobol production system (>7000 programs and batches)

• The goal: – enable integration of Systems of Record with Enterprise Modernization…

• EGL/Cobol EGL/Java; TUIRUI; CICS WAS Liberty

– …in order to enable collaboration and automation across different streams
