How Real DevOps Engineering Orgs Do It
You’ve probably heard plenty about CI/CD pipelines. But how do engineering DevOps teams with GitOps operational frameworks put it in practice? Should you have a staging environment? Do trunk-based development? Use pull requests? Rely on a Jenkins pipeline to wrap your code in feature flags?
- Why you should use fewer, not more, continuous development environments
- How branching and continuous integration (CI) make CD possible
- Why even advanced orgs sometimes violate trunk-based development
- How code review processes and batch sizes impact velocity
- Deployment strategies such as single-piece flow and the release bus
- How feature flags and controlled rollouts separate deploy from release
- Actions to implement or improve within your own organization
