Overview - Introduction to IBM UrbanCode Deploy
In this 2-day course, you will learn how to plan and automate the deployment of applications to test environments using IBM UrbanCode Deploy. IBM Deploy is a tool to standardize and simplify the process of deploying software components to any environment in your development lifecycle. This is a beginner course for new users of IBM UCD (udeploy), such as administrators, development teams, and operations managers. The hands-on exercises will use IBM UrbanCode Deploy and cover the deployment of a simple web application. You will create components, create an application that contains those components, and then deploy the components to an environment.
Below is a list of topics that we will discuss in our mentoring workshops. The topics have been developed based on previous experience and completed projects.
