“From Keyboard to Production”

Packaging, integration, and deployment are problems every software company faces. Our dev-centric approach at Wix led us to build Lifecycle™, supplying engineers with the tools they need to independently build, monitor, and ship products. Lifecycle is one of the tools driving our ability to deploy hundreds of times a day across all development stacks, be it Scala, JavaScript, or even Python. Behind the dashboard UI, lays a set of interconnected services which the CI team has mastered. In this talk, we will introduce some of them, the challenges involved, and how we chose to tackle them.

“Advanced Code Flow, Notes from the Field”

My presentation will discuss:

• Our Motivation for CI/CD

• AppsFlyer CI/CD tools set

• Building conventions and flow

• Scaling out our build process

• How we deploy

• Other operations (Revert, Restart, Branch, etc)

• Building private PAAS
