In this session Ian and Dennis will recap the recommended branching scheme and CI/CD pipeline support for IBM Z Devops and explore how that scheme compares with legacy approaches to promoting, testing and deploying code on a route from developer to production. The focus is on aligning to recognised industry practices while not losing the essential safeguards maintaining your production system's reputation for stability and security.
