Challenges
With IT systems holding sensitive PHI (protected health information) data, security and compliance are the most important concerns.
The majority of teams and systems continue to follow legacy software development lifecycle practices with manual operations and human dependencies. The outcome was low business agility, lack of innovation, and recurring quality/deployment issues.
Database deployments are manual with dependency on DBA and Production Support teams causing longer deployment time.
Support for multiple test environments with minimal downtime.
Traditional manual testing is a time-consuming approach and slowdowns the overall software delivery process with incomplete code coverage causing reduced quality.
Lack of visibility in the management team for software development progress.
