Agile and Beyond: How Far Can You Go in Embedded Software Development

Anders Wallgren

CTO, Electric Cloud


Every Business is a Software Business

Embedded/IoT Mobile Enterprise, Web/IT

“Software is eating the world” Marc Andreessen, Aug 2011



Software is now the primary driver of

innovation & disruption.




IoT is the New Embedded

Systems Driven Product Development

Multi- Domain Continuous Delivery

Cloud

Industry 4.0

Dev Ops




IoT is Everywhere. How does that change our world?

1. Accessible from anywhere

2. Automatically optimizes for cost/comfort

3. Automatically adjusts based on “presence”

4. Provides individual and aggregate reporting

5. Updates delivered continuously OTA


What are People Working On?

Types of connected devices respondents say will have the largest market opportunity in five years.

HP online survey of 610 developers and IT, 2015



What do Developers think?

Respondents who classify the IoT as "transformative", "important”

HP online survey of 610 developers and IT, 2015


26B by 2020 Gartner Prediction on the Internet of Things (excluding PCs, tablets, phones)



Today’s cars have over 300m lines of code


Challenges



Demand for More Frequent, OTA Updates


Logistics and Coordination of Different Engineering teams (+Minimizing

Friction)



Long and Challenging Integration Test Cycle


Skyrocketing Infrastructure Costs



Continued Focus on Reducing Development Costs and Cost

Overruns


Visibility and Compliance Concerns



Quality Issues


Customers Want Value. Quickly.

In the age of the consumer, empowered buyers demand a new

level of customer obsession

Amy DeMartine, Forrester



Are we there yet?

“Are you able to deliver new software to production as fast as the business demands?”

Based on a 2015 survey of 90+ IT Managers, Directors, Sr. Directors and VPs, Electric Cloud and Forrester Research Survey

PLM + ALM + CD = Multi Domain Continuous Delivery


Global Team Coordination

Before:

•  Redundant low utilization infrastructure for each team

•  Multiple admins

•  Inconsistent infrastructure

•  No one can see the whole system

•  Very hard to troubleshoot issues

•  Lack of visibility to many different projects and groups

After:

•  Less hardware BUT much higher utilization

•  Consistent tool chain, configuration, and environment

•  Centralized views to all projects in different regions

•  Drill down views to accelerate troubleshooting

•  Fast issues detection and resolution

•  Divert human resources from managing manual process to R&D

•  Authentication and Authorization for global Intellectual Property protection
