Uncovering Even More Platform Value (Ep. 51)

November 28, 2017 Jeff Kelly

Pivotal Cloud Foundry provides some rather obvious benefits, such as reducing administrative burdens on developers and automating many Day 2 operations. But there is more value in the platform if only you know where to look. That's where value stream mapping comes in. In this episode of Pivotal Insights, Mark Ruesink joins Jeff and Dormain to explore the Pivotal approach to value stream mapping and how Mark and his team help customers maximize the value of their investment in Pivotal Cloud Foundry.
