Session: Mission-Critical Agility

Wednesday, 09:00 - 09:50
Track: Keynote

Whether it is controlling interplanetary spacecraft, managing medical records, or "merely" staying employed, it seems like more of us are facing the pressure of developing mission-critical software.  It's tempting to think that reliability is all that matters, but we're also forced to adapt to constantly advancing technologies, shifting priorities, and relentless competitive pressures.  Is it wise to embrace innovation and take risks when so much is at stake?  Can you afford to be agile when failure is not an option?  Can you afford not to?
