continuous integration pipeline diagram: Continuous Delivery Jez Humble, David Farley, 2010-07-27 Winner of the 2011 Jolt Excellence Award! Getting software released to users is often a painful, risky, and time-consuming process. This groundbreaking new book sets out the principles and technical practices that enable rapid, incremental delivery of high quality, valuable new functionality to users. Through automation of the build, deployment, and testing process, and improved collaboration between developers, testers, and operations, delivery teams can get changes released in a matter of hours— sometimes even minutes–no matter what the size of a project or the complexity of its code base. Jez Humble and David Farley begin by presenting the foundations of a rapid, reliable, low-risk delivery process. Next, they introduce the “deployment pipeline,” an automated process for managing all changes, from check-in to release. Finally, they discuss the “ecosystem” needed to support continuous delivery, from infrastructure, data and configuration management to governance. The authors introduce state-of-the-art techniques, including automated infrastructure management and data migration, and the use of virtualization. For each, they review key issues, identify best practices, and demonstrate how to mitigate risks. Coverage includes • Automating all facets of building, integrating, testing, and deploying software • Implementing deployment pipelines at team and organizational levels • Improving collaboration between developers, testers, and operations • Developing features incrementally on large and distributed teams • Implementing an effective configuration management strategy • Automating acceptance testing, from analysis to implementation • Testing capacity and other non-functional requirements • Implementing continuous deployment and zero-downtime releases • Managing infrastructure, data, components and dependencies • Navigating risk management, compliance, and auditing Whether you’re a developer, systems administrator, tester, or manager, this book will help your organization move from idea to release faster than ever—so you can deliver value to your business rapidly and reliably. |
continuous integration pipeline diagram: Continuous Integration Paul M. Duvall, Steve Matyas, Andrew Glover, 2007-06-29 For any software developer who has spent days in “integration hell,” cobbling together myriad software components, Continuous Integration: Improving Software Quality and Reducing Risk illustrates how to transform integration from a necessary evil into an everyday part of the development process. The key, as the authors show, is to integrate regularly and often using continuous integration (CI) practices and techniques. The authors first examine the concept of CI and its practices from the ground up and then move on to explore other effective processes performed by CI systems, such as database integration, testing, inspection, deployment, and feedback. Through more than forty CI-related practices using application examples in different languages, readers learn that CI leads to more rapid software development, produces deployable software at every step in the development lifecycle, and reduces the time between defect introduction and detection, saving time and lowering costs. With successful implementation of CI, developers reduce risks and repetitive manual processes, and teams receive better project visibility. The book covers How to make integration a “non-event” on your software development projects How to reduce the amount of repetitive processes you perform when building your software Practices and techniques for using CI effectively with your teams Reducing the risks of late defect discovery, low-quality software, lack of visibility, and lack of deployable software Assessments of different CI servers and related tools on the market The book’s companion Web site, www.integratebutton.com, provides updates and code examples. |

continuous integration pipeline diagram: A Practical Approach to Large-Scale Agile Development Gary Gruver, Mike Young, Pat Fulghum, 2012-11-15 Today, even the largest development organizations are turning to agile methodologies, seeking major productivity and quality improvements. However, large-scale agile development is difficult, and publicly available case studies have been scarce. Now, three agile pioneers at Hewlett-Packard present a candid, start-to-finish insider’s look at how they’ve succeeded with agile in one of the company’s most mission-critical software environments: firmware for HP LaserJet printers. This book tells the story of an extraordinary experiment and journey. Could agile principles be applied to re-architect an enormous legacy code base? Could agile enable both timely delivery and ongoing innovation? Could it really be applied to 400+ developers distributed across four states, three continents, and four business units? Could it go beyond delivering incremental gains, to meet the stretch goal of 10x developer productivity improvements? It could, and it did—but getting there was not easy. Writing for both managers and technologists, the authors candidly discuss both their successes and failures, presenting actionable lessons for other development organizations, as well as approaches that have proven themselves repeatedly in HP’s challenging environment. They not only illuminate the potential benefits of agile in large-scale development, they also systematically show how these benefits can actually be achieved. Coverage includes: • Tightly linking agile methods and enterprise architecture with business objectives • Focusing agile practices on your worst development pain points to get the most bang for your buck • Abandoning classic agile methods that don’t work at the largest scale • Employing agile methods to establish a new architecture • Using metrics as a “conversation starter” around agile process improvements • Leveraging continuous integration and quality systems to reduce costs, accelerate schedules, and automate the delivery pipeline • Taming the planning beast with “light-touch” agile planning and lightweight long-range forecasting • Implementing effective project management and ensuring accountability in large agile projects • Managing tradeoffs associated with key decisions about organizational structure • Overcoming U.S./India cultural differences that can complicate offshore development • Selecting tools to support quantum leaps in productivity in your organization • Using change management disciplines to support greater enterprise agility |

continuous integration pipeline diagram: Continuous Delivery 2.0 Qiao Liang, 2021-12-29 The agile transformation is an act of transforming an organization’s form or nature gradually to one that can embrace and thrive in a flexible, collaborative, self-organizing, and fast-changing environment. It seems like most of the companies starting an agile transformation never reach the goal of agility, but there are those few that truly become agile and reap incredible benefits by utilizing DevOps as well. This book introduces the theory and practice of the double-flywheels model of Continuous Delivery 2.0: Discovery Loop, which allows information technology (IT) organizations to help businesses figure out the most efficacious ways to develop. Additionally, it explores applications of the Verification Loop that allows IT organizations to deliver value quickly and safely with high quality. Along the way, the book provides an array of insights and case studies that dive into all the aspects of software delivery, and how to implement Continuous Delivery in the most economical way for long-run business development. Features Organization culture and software architecture Business requirement management Pipeline and tooling Branching and releasing strategy Automation strategy Configuration and artefacts management Deployment and production healthy The case studies at the end of the book—scenarios in which the author was personally involved—are explored in depth and meticulously detailed in order to represent typical agile transition scenarios that will benefit all readers. |
continuous integration pipeline diagram: Continuous Software Engineering Jan Bosch, 2014-11-11 This book provides essential insights on the adoption of modern software engineering practices at large companies producing software-intensive systems, where hundreds or even thousands of engineers collaborate to deliver on new systems and new versions of already deployed ones. It is based on the findings collected and lessons learned at the Software Center (SC), a unique collaboration between research and industry, with Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg University and Malmö University as academic partners and Ericsson, AB Volvo, Volvo Car Corporation, Saab Electronic Defense Systems, Grundfos, Axis Communications, Jeppesen (Boeing) and Sony Mobile as industrial partners. The 17 chapters present the “Stairway to Heaven” model, which represents the typical evolution path companies move through as they develop and mature their software engineering capabilities. The chapters describe theoretical frameworks, conceptual models and, most importantly, the industrial experiences gained by the partner companies in applying novel software engineering techniques. The book’s structure consists of six parts. Part I describes the model in detail and presents an overview of lessons learned in the collaboration between industry and academia. Part II deals with the first step of the Stairway to Heaven, in which R&D adopts agile work practices. Part III of the book combines the next two phases, i.e., continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD), as they are closely intertwined. Part IV is concerned with the highest level, referred to as “R&D as an innovation system,” while Part V addresses a topic that is separate from the Stairway to Heaven and yet critically important in large organizations: organizational performance metrics that capture data, and visualizations of the status of software assets, defects and teams. Lastly, Part VI presents the perspectives of two of the SC partner companies. The book is intended for practitioners and professionals in the software-intensive systems industry, providing concrete models, frameworks and case studies that show the specific challenges that the partner companies encountered, their approaches to overcoming them, and the results. Researchers will gain valuable insights on the problems faced by large software companies, and on how to effectively tackle them in the context of successful cooperation projects. |

continuous integration pipeline diagram: Engineering DevOps Marc Hornbeek, 2019-12-06 This book is an engineering reference manual that explains How to do DevOps?. It is targeted to people and organizations that are doing DevOps but not satisfied with the results that they are getting. There are plenty of books that describe different aspects of DevOps and customer user stories, but up until now there has not been a book that frames DevOps as an engineering problem with a step-by-step engineering solution and a clear list of recommended engineering practices to guide implementors. The step-by-step engineering prescriptions can be followed by leaders and practitioners to understand, assess, define, implement, operationalize, and evolve DevOps for their organization. The book provides a unique collection of engineering practices and solutions for DevOps. By confining the scope of the content of the book to the level of engineering practices, the content is applicable to the widest possible range of implementations. This book was born out of the author's desire to help others do DevOps, combined with a burning personal frustration. The frustration comes from hearing leaders and practitioners say, We think we are doing DevOps, but we are not getting the business results we had expected. Engineering DevOps describes a strategic approach, applies engineering implementation discipline, and focuses operational expertise to define and accomplish specific goals for each leg of an organization's unique DevOps journey. This book guides the reader through a journey from defining an engineering strategy for DevOps to implementing The Three Ways of DevOps maturity using engineering practices: The First Way (called Continuous Flow) to The Second Way (called Continuous Feedback) and finally The Third Way (called Continuous Improvement). This book is intended to be a guide that will continue to be relevant over time as your specific DevOps and DevOps more generally evolves. |

continuous integration pipeline diagram: GitOps Anja Kammer, Simon Harrer, 2021-07-15 GitOps has caused quite some fuss on Twitter and KubeCon, and still continues to do so. This book aggregates the essence of GitOps to help clear up the confusion. This book answers the following questions: What is GitOps? Why should I use GitOps? How does GitOps work? How to get started with GitOps on Kubernetes? What's the Future of GitOps? Early PraiseSoftware development nowadays requires to be fast and iterative, infrastructure needs to adapt and evolve with the same velocity. GitOps is fundamental for modern infrastructure implementation. With GitOps your source of truth is one or more Git repositories, your process is automated and, most likely, your infrastructure is implemented in a declarative manner. For over four years I've been helping companies implementing GitOps. In this book, you find a great introduction to GitOps and how to apply it to real-world use cases with great hands-on examples. Vincenzo Ferme, Cloud Native Tech Lead at Kiratech GitOps - Cloud-native Continuous Deployment is at the heart of modern Cloud development, automation is king and efficiency is what you get.

continuous integration pipeline diagram: Building a Release Pipeline with Team Foundation Server 2012 Larry Brader, Roberta Leibovitz, Jose Luis Soria Teruel, 2013-10-04 You're expected to produce releases at an ever-increasing rate. You're under pressure to add new features and deploy to customers sometime between your first cup of coffee in the morning and lunch, if you have time to eat it. In the meantime, you have the same release processes you've always had and it's got problems. Maybe there's some automation, but there's room for lots of improvement. Manual steps are everywhere, everyone has a different environment, and working all weekend to get a release into production is normal. One of the biggest problems is that changing how your software is released won't happen by waving a magic wand or writing a memo. It comes through effort, time, and money. That takes commitment from every group involved in the software process: test, development, IT (operations), and management. Finally, change is scary. Your current release process bears no similarity to the well-oiled machines you've seen in a dozen PowerPoint presentations, but it's yours, you know its quirks, and you are shipping. This book is here to help you with some of these challenges. It explains how to progressively evolve the process you use to release software. There are many ways to improve the release process. We largely focus on how to improve its implementation, the release pipeline, by using and customizing the default build templates provided by Team Foundation Server (TFS) and Lab Management. We move forward in small iterations so that no single change you make is too drastic or disruptive. The goal of this book is to put you on the road toward continuous delivery. By continuous delivery, we mean that through techniques such as versioning, continuous integration, automation, and environment management, you will be able to decrease the time between when you first have an idea and when that idea is realized as software that's in production. We also hope to show that there are practical business reasons that justify every improvement you want to make. A better release process makes economic sense. |
