"Continuous Integration" Jolts the Industry with Best Technical Book at Jolt Awards

Book co-authored by Stelligent CTO and President

Stelligent Incorporated,  an Agile consultancy and thought leader in helping development teams create production-ready software, today announced that Paul Duvall, Stelligent CTO, Andrew Glover, Stelligent President, and Steve Matyas of 5AM Solutions received the 18th Annual Jolt Award in the Technical Books category for their publication, Continuous Integration: Improving Software Quality and Reducing Risk.  

“We are thrilled and honored to be chosen as the winner of this esteemed award,” said Paul Duvall, co-author and CTO of Stelligent.  “Every day, I see how the practice of Continuous Integration is improving how we in the software development industry can deliver working software more rapidly and I’m pleased the Jolt judges are helping to increase awareness throughout the community.”

Published by Addison-Wesley and part of Martin Fowler’s Signature Series, Continuous Integration: Improving Software Quality and Reducing Risk illustrates how to transform integration from a necessary evil into an everyday part of the development process. The key, as the authors show, is to integrate often using continuous integration practices and techniques. 

“This is a monumental accomplishment and we’re extremely proud of the contributions Paul and Andy bring to Stelligent and to the industry,” commented Stelligent CEO, Burke Cox.  “This award recognizes an expertise that, through their book, can positively impact an organization’s ability to deliver valuable projects frequently.”

Sponsored by Jolt Cola, the Jolt Product Excellence Awards are presented annually by CMP Media and recognize software products, books and websites that have “jolted” the industry with their innovation and efficiency.  Winners were selected by an esteemed panel of judges consisting of industry experts, columnists, and technology leaders and announced on March 5, 2008 at the Software Development Conference & Expo West at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA.
