Motivation and Goals


Why are we doing Jazz?

Late 90’s: Focus on Point ToolsLate 90’s: Focus on Point ToolsWho can build the best Java IDE, the best C IDE, the best Web Tool,…

When we built Eclipse : Focus on One DeveloperWhen we built Eclipse : Focus on One DeveloperSeamless integration across a set of tools to improve the productivity of one developer

Today, we must focus on the Team and its CollaborationToday, we must focus on the Team and its Collaboration� Geographically Distributed

� Accelerated Delivery Demands

� Agility with Predictability

� Innovation and Repeatability

� Increased Need for Transparency

Improve the Productivityofthe Entire Team

Improve the Productivityofthe Entire Team

The Development Landscape has shifted!

ALMALM


The demand for Application Lifecycle Management (ALM)

• Traceability of relationships between artifacts“Managing dependencies between high-priority change requests and ongoing application

development efforts “sometimes seems like it isn’t humanly possible.” (US healthcare company)

• Automation of high level processes“We had a consulting company define a methodology for us. We still have it on a shelf

somewhere. A process needs to live in the tools we use if it's ever going to be followed.” (Transportation company)

“Automating our build-deploy-test processes would probably save each of our developers about an hour a day.” (Financial services firm)

• Reporting provides visibility“We do progress reporting the same way we've been doing it for 40 years. It's all manual:

weekly status meetings, progress reports, demonstrations. We’d love to get test results from nightly builds posted somewhere instead of having to run people down to ask them whether things are working yet.” (Bank)

A Forrester Research report, “The Changing Face of Application Life-cycle Management”



Social Networking – Power of communities

• Wikipedia on Web 2.0: – a perceived second generation of web-based communities and hosted services …

that facilitate collaboration and sharing between users

• In the opening talk of the first Web 2.0 conference, Tim O'Reilly and John Battelle summarized what they saw as key principles of Web 2.0:

– the web as a platform

– data as the driving force

– network effects created by an architecture of parti cipation

– innovation in assembly of systems and sites composed bypulling together features from distributed, indepen dent developers(a kind of "open source" development)

– lightweight business models enabled by content and service syndication

– the end of the software adoption cycle ("the perpetual beta ")

– software above the level of a single device, leveraging the power of The Long Tail.

– ease of picking-up by early adopters


From Eclipse to Jazz

• Eclipse Phenomena– 2.5 millions downloads (Eclipse 3.3)– 6 years shipping on time– More than 20 projects delivered on top of Eclipse

– 17 millions LOC

• Why?– Extensible Platform– Based on Open Standards– Eclipse Community

• How?� Describing the process => the Eclipse Way

: Tooling the process

But… there are Pain Points on…

• Team Awareness– joining a team – get my environment configured to be productive– what is happening in my team

– collecting progress status– following the team’s process– starting an ad hoc team

– ad hoc collaboration/sharing of changes

Boring and painful⇒ Time thieves



But… there are Pain Points on… (cont.)

• Build awareness– is the fix in the build?– what will be in the next build?– tracking a broken build

– Avoid breaking a build/personal build – why is this change in the build?– reconstructing a context for a bug/build failure



But… there are Pain Points on… (cont.)

• Project Awareness– creating, tracking iteration plans– interrupting development due to a high priority bug fix– working on multiple releases concurrently

– tracking the code review of a fix– referencing team artifacts in discussions– how healthy is a component?

– collecting project data/metrics?




What if your tools know…

• about your teams• about your artifacts• who is responsible for what• rules under which circumstances code can be delivered

– Code quality, traceability, test runs, intellectual property

• how to bootstrap a project• how to help new team members get started• your favorite work item types and their state transitions• when the build runs and what to do if it breaks


• A major investment by IBM to create a scalable, extensible team collaboration platform.

• IBM’s vision for the future of software delivery -- supporting a workforce that is increasingly organizationally and globally distributed, fluid and dynamic.

• An evolution of the Rational portfolio , which will evolve to support the Jazz technology platform over time.

• A community at Jazz.net – the online venue for open commercial development of select Jazz-based products.

Jazz is a project and platform for transforming how people work together to deliver greater value and performance from their software investments.

High Level Architecture


Tools Collaboration generally means exponential complexity!

Tool AUntil now, building an integrated platform required a cross tools understanding:

Each integrated tool had to know about each other tool.

Tool CTool B

Tool E Tool F

Tools Collaboration based on Middleware Services

• With the Jazz platform, the tools communicate only with the platform:• By listening to normalized/standardized events from the platform• By sending normalized/standardized events to the platform

Guiding Principles…


Collaboration - Team First

• Explicit team structure and roles– Contributor can belong to more than one team

• Team awareness– event feeds per team

– presence indication– workload

– chat in context

• Team autonomy– team owns its process

– team owns components

– team has its plans– team has its build



Process Awareness• Jazz is Process neutral

– Support many different practices and processes

• Tool understands how a team works.Process is Specific…

– to the project– to the team– to the current milestone phase– to the assigned roles

• Process controls how the tools behave


Process Awareness (Cont)� Process must be highly tweakable to be tolerable

– Reactive, not controlling

– Non-intrusive: only when required

– Helpful: self-explaining, quick fixes

� Reduce team member mistakes

� Free the team members minds



Traceability over… Work Items• Automatic linking….


Traceability… Builds• A Build is a first-class object

– Associated build results, tests

– Full navigability to all artifacts contributing to a build, directly or indirectly

• Build engine is “pluggable”:– Jazz Build Engine,

– CruiseControl,

– BuildForge,

– Maven (incubator)…



Transparency in… PlanningKnowing what is going on without having to ask!

• Integrates planning with execution

• Easily see what needs to be done, what is being worked

• Real-time window on project status

Based on data collected in real-timefrom actual development work.

Always accurate.No extra effort required to gather data

Based on data collected in real-timefrom actual development work.

Always accurate.No extra effort required to gather data


Transparency in… Planning (Cont.)

• Providing visibility into the progress of development efforts outside of the team



Transparency in… Dashboards/Reports

• Scoped by– Project

– Team

– User

• Viewlet collection– Events, feeds

– Queries, bookmarks

– Reports with drill down

– Planning

– Install

• Jazz workshop

• Install– Try the JUnit

Sample Project



Think differently

• Current approaches for building tools don’t go far enough

“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”

A. Einstein


Transparency in… Development (Project Health)• Based on data collected in real-time from actual development work

– No extra effort required to gather data

– Always accurate



Transparency

Knowing what is going onwithout having to ask!

• Transparency in planning– available to all– live updated

• Transparency in development– automatic linking– build results/reports– Dashboard

• Transparency in process– team structure– team roles– team rules


Change Sets, Streams, Components

• Component based development: – Components

– Base lines

– Snapshots

• Multi-streaming is cheap (branching),– flexible flowing of change sets

• Server side workspaces– Enables ad hoc sharing of changes,

change set sharing

• Change-set cherry picking• Suspending changes• Private versions

• Refactoring tracking ⇒ enables aggressive/agile refactoring My Way your way:

• Customizable flows• Stream levels• Delivery rules



Guiding Principles

Help people work together to be more effective:• Integration• Team First• Collaboration

• Transparency
