Overview
Using Continuous Delivery, you can bring software into production more rapidly, with greater reliability. A Practical Guide to Continuous Delivery is a 100% practical guide to building Continuous Delivery pipelines that automate rollouts, improve reproducibility, and dramatically reduce risk.
Eberhard Wolff introduces a proven Continuous Delivery
technology stack, including Docker, Chef, Vagrant, Jenkins,
Graphite, the ELK stack, JBehave, and Gatling. He guides you
through applying these technologies throughout build, continuous
integration, load testing, acceptance testing, and monitoring.
Wolff’s start-to-finish example projects offer the basis for
your own experimentation, pilot programs, and full-fledged
deployments.
A Practical Guide to Continuous Delivery is for everyone who
wants to introduce Continuous Delivery, with or without DevOps. For
managers, it introduces core processes, requirements, benefits, and
technical consequences. Developers, administrators, and architects
will gain essential skills for implementing and managing pipelines,
and for integrating Continuous Delivery smoothly into software
architectures and IT organizations.
Understand the problems that Continuous Delivery solves, and how it solves them
Establish an infrastructure for maximum software automation
Leverage virtualization and Platform as a Service (PAAS) cloud solutions
Implement build automation and continuous integration with Gradle, Maven, and Jenkins
Perform static code reviews with SonarQube and repositories to store build artifacts
