The Acronyms

CI: Continuous Integration

• Running builds and integration tests whenever code

is committed to a repository

• Building software from source

CD: Continuous Delivery / Continuous Deployment

• Deploying build artifacts into test, staging, or

production environments

• Code metrics

• Build container

images or packages

• Preparation or

update in

deployment

templates

• Create or update

monitor dashboards

• Integration tests

with other

components

• Load/stress tests

• UI testing

• Penetration testing

• Requirement testing

• Preparing release

notes

• Version tagging

• Code freeze

• Feature freeze

• Updating the

infrastructure. I.e.

How Can We Reduce Duplication?

Instead of adding a PaaS at the end:

• Safely expose parts of the deployment lifecycle

• Translate staging into an observable pipeline

• Store and expose artifacts (images, config)

• Track changes between deployments

• Make GitOps part of the platform
