4 things to remember…..
• Agility Platform is a comprehensive, purpose-built
CMP for enterprise customers
• Applications and Platforms Drive Business
Value… not infrastructure
• Cloud Governance must be application-centric
and extensible
• Application Release Automation (DevOps) is a
priority for large enterprises today
