Eberhard Wolff introduces a proven Continuous Delivery technology stack, including Docker, Chef, Vagrant, Jenkins, Graphite, the ELK stack, JBehave, and Gatling. He guides you through applying these technologies throughout build, continuous integration, load testing, acceptance testing, and monitoring. Wolff's start-to-finish example projects offer the basis for your own experimentation, pilot programs, and full-fledged deployments.
A Practical Guide to Continuous Delivery is for everyone who wants to introduce Continuous Delivery, with or without DevOps. For managers, it introduces core processes, requirements, benefits, and technical consequences. Developers, administrators, and architects will gain essential skills for implementing and managing pipelines, and for integrating Continuous Delivery smoothly into software architectures and IT organizations.
Understand the problems that Continuous Delivery solves, and how it solves them
Establish an infrastructure for maximum software automation
Leverage virtualization and Platform as a Service (PAAS) cloud solutions
Implement build automation and continuous integration with Gradle, Maven, and Jenkins
Perform static code reviews with SonarQube and repositories to store build artifacts
Establish automated GUI and textual acceptance testing with behavior-driven design
Ensure appropriate performance via capacity testing
Check new features and problems with exploratory testing
Minimize risk throughout automated production software rollouts
Gather and analyze metrics and logs with Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana (ELK), and Graphite
Manage the introduction of Continuous Delivery into your enterprise
Architect software to facilitate Continuous Delivery of new capabilities
Eberhard Wolff, a Fellow at innoQ in Germany, has more than 15 years of experience as an architect and consultant working at the intersection of business and technology. He gives talks and keynote addresses at several international conferences, has served on multiple conference program committees, and has written more than 100 articles and books. His technological focus is on modern architectures-often involving cloud, continuous delivery, DevOps, microservices, and NoSQL. He is author of Microservices: Flexible Software Architecture.
