Today’s development processes focus on decoupling build and deployment activities to facilitate fast software distribution and parallel activities in teams.
The deployment of an application represents the transformation of that software from a packaged artifact to an operational working state. Modern development days require this transformation to happen as fast as possible in order to get rapid feedback about the running state of our system.

While looking at your deployment process, you should continuously ask yourself, “What instructions would a machine need to execute this deployment as I envisioned it?” and share those with the colleagues or experts in charge of the infrastructure and automation.
