Goal of this blog series
With this series of blogs, we want to keep you informed on the latest news and what is important in the area of SAP ALM APIs and integration for SAP Cloud ALM, SAP Focused Run and SAP Solution Manager.
Motivation
Today, ALM practice must connect different teams from different locations, platforms, solutions and tools relying on open source or proprietary technologies.
The scope of ALM is shifting from a water-fall development mode to an agile development mode and from on-premise software mode to hybrid software model. In addition ALM should include real-time collaboration and support DevOps culture and practice as well as continuous delivery methods.
ALM requires the capabilities to integrate all ALM tools and the capacity to produce unified reporting and analytics for the entire life-cycle.
This key feature of ALM platforms can only be achieved with open APIs to integrate across technologies, solutions and platforms.
