Chapter 1. Continuous Delivery Basics
“Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.”
First principle of the Agile Manifesto
Continuous delivery (CD) is fundamentally a set of practices and disciplines in which software delivery teams produce valuable and robust software in short cycles. Care is taken to ensure that functionality is added in small increments and that the software can be reliably released at any time. This maximizes the opportunity for rapid feedback and learning. In 2010, Jez Humble and Dave Farley published their seminal book Continuous Delivery (Addison-Wesley), which collated their experiences working on software delivery projects around the world, and this publication is still the go-to reference for CD. The book contains a very valuable collection of techniques, methodologies, and advice from the perspective of both technology and organizations. One of the core recommended technical practices of CD is the creation of a build pipeline, through which any candidate change to the software being delivered is built, integrated, tested, and validated before being determining that it is ready for deployment to a production environment.
Continuous Delivery with a Java Build Pipeline
Figure 1-1 demonstrates a typical continuous delivery build pipeline for a Java-based monolithic application. The first step of the process of CD is continuous integration (CI). Code that is created on a developer’s laptop ...
