The solution easily integrates with the Jenkins Pipeline suite of plug ins to provide an automated and efficient way of receiving, evaluating, and implementing Db2® schema changes as part of an application update.
"Companies must create and update applications faster than ever in order to compete in today's digital world," said Bill Miller, President of ZSolutions at BMC.

Using this solution, our clients will become more agile, and they will run faster and deliver applications more quickly and more effectively."
