| Ovum's vision for application lifecycle management | | | | Securing the enterprise |
| (ALM), encompassing solutions designed to produce | | | | Application security |
| business results, is a distinct shift away from traditional | | | | HP Software |
| views of ALM as integrated software development | | | | Software project direction |
| lifecycle tools. In our previous report, ALM: applying a | | | | Business whiteboarding |
| business process-oriented paradigm, we proposed that | | | | Software warranties |
| ALM be delivered as discrete business solutions that | | | | Closed-loop quality assurance |
| encompass the functionality of one or more tools. We | | | | Business agility |
| specified solution that areas address broad process | | | | Scaling out Agile development |
| goals relating to software project direction, software | | | | Model-driven development |
| warranties, business priorities, business agility, product | | | | Securing the enterprise |
| innovation and enterprise security. This report provides | | | | List of Tables |
