Having 1 release a week, which involved logging onto servers and manually deploying packages, we knew that there must be a better way. After investigation, and a fair bit of pain, a pipeline from local to live via TeamCity and OctopusDeploy was created to enable us to release at minimum twice a week. This presentation tells of how suffered, and the things we learnt on the way to the promise land of click-button deployment in a multi-server AWS environment.

Dave Marsland has worked in .NET web development for 6 years, with a passion for making sure developers spend their time doing what they do best, which is develop cool and valuable applications. Currently at Totaljobs Group as Development team lead, he is responsible for high level technical strategy and ensuring we use the correct tool for the job.

After the talk, we'll head to the pub for a few drinks and a natter.
