In theory...I think that its hard not to get involved with ops and the Infrastructure Lifecycle or Dev and the SDLC as they are both rolled up into silos of the PDLC in the launch and iterative release process.  The real question is how does a company's organization choose to implement the workforce to do the PDLC, that drive's the whole process.  In my opinion a company should have project managers doing some sort of Scrum or agile work on the SDLC side, and operationalized Program Managers tracking infrastructure work while marketing and product managers drive feature and the PDLC.  The trifecta... all getting along in harmony...heh, yes that would be a perfect world.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">efacility</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 Apr 2010 13:51:11 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
