    [Webinar] Synchronous IBM i and non-IBM i Deployments
    April 13 at 12 p.m. ET

    Do you need to automate and synchronize deployments across ALL your environments and applications?

    Many backend IBM i applications have off-platform components, such as an API layer, or Web front-end. To ensure your application stays reliable, artifacts must be deployed securely and in-sync.

    In our Webinar, learn how to orchestrate all your deployments, multi-platform and multi-cloud, using DROPS by ARCAD Software:

    – One single console to deploy across multiple endpoints – IBM i, Windows, Linux, IBM z, on prem or cloud

    – Real-time visibility of application status, from anywhere

    – Deployment plans and one-click-deploy

    – Rollback on error

    Simplify and secure your application delivery.
