This practical guide brings DevOps principles to Salesforce development. It fits together two major movements within the IT world: the movement to Software/Platform as a Service (SaaS/PaaS), and the DevOps movement. While SaaS and PaaS allow companies to invest in their core competencies rather than maintain their own infrastructure, the goal of DevOps is to optimize the process of delivering software innovation and value. The release of Salesforce DX in late 2017 unlocks the possibility of a true DevOps workflow on Salesforce.

Dieses Buch wendet sich an alle Freunde der Programmiersprache APL und an jene, die es werden wollen. Es kann aber auch dem Organisator, der fUr die Konzeption von DV-Anwendungen verantwortlich ist, hilfreiche Anregungen geben. In der Datenverarbeitung befassen wir uns im allgemeinen mit Aufgaben- stellungen, die aufgrund ihrer internen Logik einer vordefinierbaren und damit algorithmischen Problemlosung zuginglich sind. Diese Aufgabenstellungen las- sen sich immer in verschiedene Einzelprozesse unterteilen, wobei wir unter ej- nem ProzeS einen Arbeitsschritt wie z. B. die Buchung eines Geldbetrages auf das Konto eines Bankkunden verstehen. Die Analyse dieser Prozesse verlangt ein intensives Fachwissen iiber die organisatorischen AbUiufe des betroffenen Unternehmensbereiches. Auf der Analyse dieser AbUiufe baut nun der Zweig des Software Engineerings auf, der sich mit Design und Entwicklung -haufig zunachst in Fonn eines Prototyps -der geforderten Anwendung befaBt. Auf- gabe des Software Engineerings ist es dabei, LOsungen zu rmden, die die Pro- jektziele in funktionaler und qualitativer Hinsicht abdecken. Unter Qualitat sind auBer der Funktionalitat der Anwendung auch Ziele wie Wartbarkeit, Er- weiterbarkeit und Dokumentation zu verstehen. Mit die sen Zielsetzungen werde ich mich in diesem Buch befassen, da sie Grundlage jeder Anwendung sein miissen. Hierbei steht nicht die Einfiilm, mg in die Programmiersprache APL im Vordergrund, die bereits mehrfach in Handbiichern zu dieser Sprache gegeben wurde, sondem die konzeptionelle Entwicklung und Beschreibung von Bausteinen, die fdr eine effektive Anwen- dungsentwicklung erforderlich sind.
