The DevOps movement has enabled organizations to leave behind months-long procurement cycles and instead get the infrastructure they need in a matter of hours, or even minutes. While many organizations have benefited from this automation, even greater gains can be realized when the application development and hosting platform provides capabilities further up the stack. Tune in to this webinar to learn: 1. The symbiotic relationship between DevOps and PaaS 2. How to transform your infrastructure into an abstracted application layer that stands ready to initiate services on demand 3. The kinds of outcomes experienced by early adopters of the Pivotal CF PaaS
