Interview with Agile Expert Dr. Israel Gat
MGI Research, Dec 2010, Pages: 10
In spite of the massive amount of innovation and scientific breakthroughs in technology, software development remains a bottleneck for organizations trying to build and deploy new business applications, and also for software companies attempting to accelerate development cycles. MGI Research recently conducted an in-depth interview with Dr. Israel Gat, a widely recognized expert in the areas of Agile programming methodologies, and well-regarded pioneer of the concept of “Technical Debt”, an emergent hot topic with CFOs and CEOs trying to understand their IT investments. Prior to launching his private consultancy, Israel led the Agile transformation at BMC Software that eventually encompassed over 1,000 developers around the globe. Prior to BMC, Israel has served in executive roles at IBM, EMC and Microsoft. Currently, Dr. Gat serves as the Director of the Cutter Consortium’s Agile Product and Project Management Practice, and he consults to major organizations and software companies around the world. He is the author of The Concise Executive Guide to Agile.
This interview with respected expert Dr. Israel Gat explains what Agile programming is, discussing the concept of Technical Debt, and explores the benefits of the emerging concept of DevOps. Having transformed BMC Software's global development operation into an Agile shop, Dr. Gat provides clear, concise answers to executive-level questions regarding Agile, Technical Debt, and DevOps.
