"How to deploy web software".
The software world > web servers.
(Sorry to be picky, but some people seem to assume that all software is developed for the web these days whereas the web world is just a significant & vocal minority).
- zeisss 11y agoI think the text works fine for any kind of server software. As he discussed, feature flags also work for downloadable software (desktop/mobile) - the multiple deployments obviously don't make that much sense in that case though.
- collyw 11y agoA great deal of software is web based these days. You install apps on your phone or your desktop. You deploy to a server.
- TickleSteve 11y agotrue, but its still a 'sizeable minority'. As far as number of deployments go, the embedded software world massively outweighs server, client, mobile and desktop. Unfortunately (or fortunately), we in the embedded software world tend to be less vocal than the others.
- collyw 11y agoI wouldn't have though deploy was the correct word for embedded. If its one piece of software I would think of it as an install. If it's coordinating multiple pieces its a deployment.
