"Accelerating product delivery in the Digital Economy through Continuous Application Lifecycle Management of Cloud-based Workload, backed by @WalmartLabs"

I think you could work on that elevator pitch a little - it seems like it's been workshopped by a committee, and doesn't really tell me anything.

I was just about to post the same thing. So much business-speak, no idea what in the world this could be.

You might want to brush up on business speak, that's the real reason for writing the vast majority of all software ever written or that will be written in this century.

The point is that it is possible to be able to pitch a technology to management without being overly opaque and sounding like a bag of buzzwords.

Also, keep in mind that different industries are accustomed to different sets of terminology. Engineers at tech companies don't usually use terms such as "product delivery" and "Continuous Application Lifecycle Management." To us, "multi-cloud orchestrator" is a much clearer way to describe this technology.

No need to be so condescending.

It's odd, I am an engineer at a tech company that works on the Salesforce stack so I use the phrase "product delivery" all the time and "continuous application lifecycle management" is a perfectly normal phrase to me. It's really all about different industries, even within "tech".

I don't see the problem. Obviously they are innovating through paradigm disruption.

You just gotta love IT departments at non-tech corporations. Shudder

So you mean the IT departments that represent the majority of all businesses in the entire world? Yes, they work their butts off.

Not only that, this is coming out of "Walmart Labs @ Walmart Global eCommerce". Sounds like a tech company.... This is more just big company PR people than tech or non-tech.

Here we see a live example of ignorance being bliss. Walmart Labs is as much as an 'IT corporation' as vineyards are football fields.

I think they forgot to capitalize Product Delivery (?). Someone fix it and submit a pull request.
