Andrew Tram talks CD Release Train

On this episode we were able to sit down with our final guest before the lockdown/quarantine went into full effect. In Episode 10 we were able to chat with Andrew Tram, based out of RTP, NC, US. Andrew is an IBM Developer for z/OS Advisory Software and DevOps Release Engineer. Andrew has spent much of his career with IBM and has been with the mainframe from the start. He has a very technical background, and that gives him a really great perspective when it comes to our continuous delivery releases. In this episode he talks about our release schedule, the overall process, and so much more. We covered such topics as: What a Release Manager is and what do they do? Aqua Products – what are they and where can I learn more?
