Data Management not Agile

• 20% SDLC time lost waiting for data

• 60% dev/QA time consumed by data tasks

Conclusion:

Data management does not scale to Agile

- Infosys

Data is the Constraint

11

Application Development Constraints

1. Not enough resources2. Bad test data leading to bugs3. Slow environment builds

1. Not Enough Resources: shared bottlenecks

Frustration Waiting

1. Not Enough Resources : bugs because of old data

Old Unrepresentative Data

1. Not enough resources: limited environments

2. Bad data leads to bugs: subsets

• Ease of Use• Instant data,

no copying• Consistent

Hard to mask consistently

Moving data from prod to non-prod takes a long time

PRIVATE CLOUD

1. Development & QA– Dev throughput increase by 2x

2. Secure– Mask once, clone many

3. Cloud Enablement– Compressed, encrypted replication– active/active replication
