What is ALM Health?

In this webinar, Prodly CEO Max Rudman and Director of Customer Success Scott Teeple discuss the importance of shifting focus from simple DevOps to holistic Application Lifecycle Management (ALM). They explain that while DevOps focuses heavily on engineering, ALM covers the entire lifespan of a process, including planning, building, testing, releasing, and monitoring. The speakers break down the five key stages of a healthy lifecycle:

• Plan: Establishing a formal change request process to prioritize tasks and control scope creep.

• Build: Avoiding production changes and utilizing proper environment management strategies.

• Test: Prioritizing business logic and automated regression testing over simple UI checks.

• Release: Moving away from manual tools like change sets toward automation and version control.

• Monitor: Ensuring compliance, tracking ROI, and preparing for audits, particularly for SOX compliance in revenue-related systems like CPQ.
