Multiphase onboarding for technical services
Onboarding technical services in DevOps Intelligence (DI) typically requires separate configuration for each phase: Develop, Build, Secure and Scan. This process can increase administrative effort, extend onboarding times, and introduce inconsistencies across phases.
To address these challenges, we propose a unified onboarding experience. This approach offers several advantages, including:
- Select multiple phases during the initial setup.
- Track which phases have been onboarded.
- View available phases for future onboarding.
- Add phases later without reentering service details.
By adopting this streamlined approach, organizations can significantly reduce administrative tasks, minimize configuration issues and accelerate the overall onboarding process. The goal is to configure once, select multiple phases from the start and easily extend capabilities later.
