CI/CD and Evolving a Stack from a Small Tight-knit Engineering Team

High Performing Software Teams tend to:

• Release quickly and often
• Have well-defined processes for getting the code from development to production
• Have lower rates of failure from changes and can quickly rollback

This is especially critical as platforms grow in size and complexity, in tandem with engineering teams. The build-test-release cycle needs to be tailored towards ensuring quality, correctness, and security. This talk will detail experiences transitioning from a waterfall approach to Continuous Integration and Deployment of software
