What is IBM UrbanCode Deploy?
IBM UrbanCode® Deploy is an application-release automation solution that combines deployment automation with robust visibility, traceability and auditing capabilities.
What UrbanCode Deploy can help you do
Achieve speed with quality
Increase frequency of software delivery through automated, repeatable deployment processes across development, test and production.
Manage complexity
Simplify the deployment of multichannel applications to all environments, whether on-premises or in the cloud — public or private — with consistency and repeatability.
Scale reliably
Use a single centralized server to manage tens of thousands of endpoints to any number of clouds, data centers or mainframes.
Key features
Multitiered application models
Use models and snapshots to track which components make up an application, so that they can be deployed together.
Integrations that replace custom scripting
Make processes more robust and easier to design by using tested integrations with dozens of tools and technologies.
Easy-to-use process designer
Orchestrate application deployments by defining parallel and sequential activities, using drag-and-drop functionality.
Scalable distributed automation
Meet enterprise requirements with an architecture designed to scale — high availability, horizontal scalability and tight security.
Deployable to public, private and hybrid cloud
Model cloud environments to deploy your applications in a simple graphical editor.
Quality gates and approvals
Ensure that only application component versions which meet quality criteria are promoted across test environments en route to production.
