Apache Maven integration available

Deployit now provides an out-of-the-box integration with Apache Maven, the software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.

As Andrew Phillips, product manager at XebiaLabs, stated: “We strongly believe that you can only reap the full benefits of Automated Deployment by integrating your deployment automation tools with your Development and Operations tool chains. That’s why we have integrated Maven into Deployit.”

The benefits of the Maven integration are:

• Fewer human errors: Avoid error-prone tasks like manually putting together the deployment package or updating the CMDB.
• Flexibility and security: Generate the package's manifest file without having to hard-code values, by using Maven’s placeholders instead.
• Ease-of-use: Easily integrate automated deployment into your test and build cycle, using Deployit's flexible package format and command-line interface.

By providing an integration with Maven, Deployit allows its customers to go from a clean build to a deployed, running package in just one click!
