Forthcoming webinar: The Role of Databases in Agile Development, with Delphix

Many organizations have adopted agile development processes to accelerate their application projects. However, the database underlying these applications is often a major obstacle to success with agile development.

On Wednesday, May 8, at 9:00am PT I’ll be taking part in a webinar with Delphix to discuss incompatibilities between relational databases and agile methodologies, potential use and applicability of new database systems, and methods for achieving greater success in applying agile methods to database-driven development.

In particular I’ll be discussing:

  • Agile development overview
  • Relational databases and agile development
  • Agile as a driver for alternative databases
  • Agility and consistency – the best of both worlds?
