4 Business Outcome Alignment with CI/CD Design Patterns

In this chapter, we will connect the business outcome to CI/CD design patterns. Business outcomes can be considered as top-level goals. Organizations steer to launch new product features and services to enhance profitability, brand recognition, and customer satisfaction.

It is not always simple to clearly articulate and prioritize business goals without a systematic plan, and then it becomes even more complex to connect initiatives such as CI/CD design pattern implementation to objectives and key results (OKRs). OKRs are a goal-driven framework that provides an effective way of defining business objectives and managing them through goals. The OKR-based way of driving business outcomes with ...

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
