In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, agility isn’t just for distributed systems—mainframe teams are embracing DevOps to accelerate delivery and improve quality. This session is based on a real-world pipeline for the mainframe, showcasing how CI/CD is achieved using tools like a graphical IDE, scm, pipeline automation and code analysis, but focuses on how to improve delivery through metrics. We’ll explore how automation transforms traditional workflows, enabling faster deployments, streamlined testing, and continuous integration. We’ll tie these practices directly to the DORA4 metrics—deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate, and mean time to recovery—demonstrating measurable improvements in performance and reliability. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how metrics-driven practices reduce friction in mainframe delivery, making mainframe changes as agile and responsive as those in distributed environments. Whether you're just starting your journey or looking to optimize your pipeline, this session offers actionable insights and proven strategies.
