Resources Check out the 3 easy ways to come up to speed on vNextannounced • SpeakFlow: Follow the lifecycle – from development to operations and back again. • Starting at the “STORYBOARDING” video (at the top) and then following the circle counter-clockwise. Tip: To go up a level after drilling in, use your mouse wheel or the UP key on your keyboard. • Foundational Session: This 60-minute, demo-heavy presentation by Cameron Skinner and Brian Keller will paint a broader picture of our ALM story than we had time for during the keynote. • Whitepaper: Here is a great PDF whitepaper which reinforces the value propositions for what we’re delivering in vNext.
