About Jazz

IBM supports the Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration initiative.
Software is best developed by a team of people, reacting and responding to each other in order to achieve the best outcome.
Vision
Jazz is an IBM Rational initiative to help make software delivery teams more effective.
Inspired by the artists who transformed musical expression, Jazz is an initiative to transform software delivery by making it more collaborative, productive and transparent, through integration of information and tasks across the phases of the software lifecycle.
