Panaya announced today the availability of Release Dynamix , Panaya's cloud application lifecycle management (ALM) solution which enables rapid high quality software delivery by accelerating and validating all phases of change delivery from conception through validation, for complex hybrid IT environments.

"IT departments need to take the lead with digital transformation by becoming agile and adjusting to rapidly changing business and market conditions," said Jake Klein, CEO of Panaya. "At the same time best-of-breed is replacing best-of -suite, increasing the complexity of IT environments and creating speed and quality challenges. Panaya Release Dynamix provides real-time visibility into the delivery and quality status of projects and releases, down to the level of individual requirements, ensuring that application owners have complete, accurate information to make decisions."
"Rising customer expectations, competitive threats, and increased consumer choice make rapid delivery and iteration of software applications a competitive differentiator. Optimizing the delivery value chain - well beyond traditional ALM - is a crucial contributor to better business outcomes," stated Diego Lo Giudice, Vice President, Principal Analyst, and Kurt Bittner in the Forrester Research report, TechRadar™: Continuous Software Delivery, Q3 2016.
