CI/CD

Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery

Goals of CI/CD

• Faster time to market

• Reduced Risk

• Shorter Review Time

• Better Code Quality

• Smoother path to production

• Faster bug fixes

• Measurable progress

• Tight feedback loops

• Easy rollbacks

Faster time to market

• Launch features faster
• Iterate on product faster
• Better A/B testing and feature experimentation

Reduced Risk

Development Benefit

• Fail fast in lower environments.                    

Business Benefit

• Rapid Releases tightens the feedback loop

Shorter Review Time

• Developers are encouraged to commit their code more frequently (PSA: at the end of the day)
• Code reviews can be done faster and be better scoped.

Better Code Quality

• Automated tests
• Code coverage

Smoother Path to production

• CI/CD is best done incrementally
  • Address pain points 

Faster Rollback

• Predictable deploys
• Predictable rollback
