With the advent of ITIL 4 more than ever, IT Support teams and Development teams are coming together to create value. This is being further propelled by research on the state of development from Atlassian who interviewed 2182 developers. 59% of teams operate “You Build It You Run It” models and its the big trend in development.
We will further discuss these trends, as well as the challenge it poses for siloed enterprise processes and tools. George and I will recap integration use cases between IT support and ITIL processes and development teams further identifying winning strategies for creating value in organizations.
