Continuous Delivery: Reliable Software Releases through Build, Test, and Deployment Automation (Hardcover)
內容描述
Description
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.
