ServiceNow DevOps Change Velocity is built on a powerful data model that connects existing development tools to change management for automatic ticketing and approval. This can make change management transparent to developers, improving their experience and helping to make them more productive by allowing them to stay in their preferred tools. You have a complete chain from what is happening in production to the initial ideation or defect that caused a developer to start work. One of many valuable outcomes is the ability to accelerate changes while ensuring effective and transparent risk management. Companies are turning to DevOps to speed up product delivery and innovation without compromising quality.
Simple to deploy
DevOps Change Velocity simplifies and streamlines your ServiceNow DevOps install experience. Starting with release 1.31, whether you are upgrading an existing ServiceNow DevOps version or installing it new, you need only to install the DevOps Change Velocity app. All dependencies will be installed or upgraded automatically* including:
- DevOps Data Model (formerly called "DevOps")
- DevOps Integrations
- DevOps Insights
- DevOps Workspace
This change does not affect your DevOps product experience or functionality; it is intended solely to make it easier to install and maintain DevOps apps.
----------
*Note: Native tool extensions such as the Jenkins plug-in for ServiceNow DevOps and Azure DevOps Integration for DevOps must still be updated independently.
Change Acceleration
Automatically create Change Requests (CHG) for stages under change control. The DevOps Change Workflow and DevOps Change Approval policy enable you to automate change approvals. Completely automate the change approval process by using data from the toolchain and data that is already in the ServiceNow platform to match sophisticated change policies.
Pipeline ModelingHarmonize and model your Azure DevOps, GitLab, Jenkins, and other DevOps pipelines in the ServiceNow platform for simpler process management and end-to-end visibility that is unique to ServiceNow DevOps.
IntegrationsIntegrations to your existing DevOps toolchain collect lifecycle events and data, saving time and integration maintenance expenses. Several base-system integrations like Jenkins and Azure DevOps require the DevOps Integrations app, which is included in the ServiceNow DevOps license. Our integration packages simplify onboarding (connecting to) the following tools:
Base-system integrations:
- Planning: Jira, ITBM Agile 2.0, Azure DevOps Boards
- Code: GitHub.com, Enterprise GitHub, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps Repos
- Orchestration: Jenkins, Azure DevOps Pipelines, GitLab via our DevOps Integrations app
DevOps Insights
DevOps Insights surfaces shared insights through reporting and analytics, including the four key 'Accelerate' metrics. The resulting operational and business insights significantly improve collaboration and communication.
DevOps Workspace
ServiceNow DevOps is built on a powerful data model that connects your DevOps toolchain to the work and data already in the platform. One of several valuable outcomes is the ability to accelerate changes while ensuring effective and transparent risk management. This can make change management transparent to developers, improving their experience and helping to make them more productive by allowing them to stay in their preferred tools.
