XebiaLabs Introduces New DevOps Prediction Engine
March 27, 2019

XebiaLabs announced the first predictive risk solution for DevOps that warns teams of delays and risks in the software delivery process.

Using a new DevOps Prediction Engine, the XebiaLabs DevOps Platform’s Risk Prediction Module combines machine learning with a proprietary algorithm to give teams a “weather forecast” for their releases before those releases even start to run.

The XebiaLabs DevOps Prediction Engine highlights potential bottlenecks before release processes start, so Release Managers, Developers, and DevOps Engineers can take preventative action, adjust timelines, and keep the business in the loop. Powerful predictive risk analysis enables DevOps teams to answer questions such as:

- What are the chances this release will fail, and what can we do about it?

- Is this release likely to be delayed, and by how long?

- How likely is a team member to skip specific release tasks, and why?

- What caused releases like this one to fail or be delayed in the past?

XebiaLabs already provides customizable risk scoring that identifies warning signs during a release process to indicate when it is not on track. Now, the company has added a new Risk Forecast Function to the XebiaLabs DevOps Platform. Powered by a machine learning-based DevOps Prediction Engine, it offers the following capabilities:

- Risk alerts that warn the team when a release is likely to be delayed or to fail, before the release pipeline starts running, so they can take preventative action

- A comprehensive Risk Forecast view that summarizes predicted delays and failures for every task in the release process, so teams can drill down into the specific parts of the process that are likely to cause issues

- An overview of statistics for similar releases, so teams can see historical analysis at a glance and identify trends in both release and task failure, across all tools in their release pipeline

- Release forensics that uncover flaky automated tests, problematic build setups, long-running deployments, and time-consuming manual tasks, so teams can identify their biggest pain points and make the changes that will have the most impact on their ability to deliver software quickly and reliably

“The XebiaLabs DevOps Platform has long included advanced features for enabling organizations to reduce the potential for risk failure,” said Andreas Prins, VP of Product Strategy for XebiaLabs. “The XebiaLabs Predictive DevOps Engine is another huge step forward towards increasing IT teams’ ability to move away from reactive management of their releases, to a proactive approach that preempts failure and optimizes their pipelines for success.”
