The ABCs of continuous release and deploy in a DevOps approach

Streamline release operations and increase business agility

Published March 2014

In this paper, we focus on the bottlenecks in enterprise software delivery caused by the hand-off from development to operations. Typically, the operations team struggles to deliver applications at the pace that the development team creates them. Agile practices have enabled development teams to quickly create change.

But manual processes, poor communication between developers and operations, and inconsistencies between processes and tools prove too error-prone for operations to deploy safely every release to production.

As a result, applications with interdependencies pile up, and organizations are not able to keep up with business needs, market trends, and customer demands. Companies need a way to deploy changes at an accelerated pace while maintaining stability.
