Shameless Plug: I've recently been involved in writing a book on Continuous Deployment, which covers many of the points Instagram are writing about here (but in greater detail).
I've got ~1,000 printed copies to give away. So if anyone wants one, go here: http://madete.ch/1S3OGvl http://madete.ch/1S3OGvl and follow the link on the left hand side and we'll mail a copy to you.
- perlgeek 10y agoHey, I'm currently also writing a book on automating deployments (https://deploybook.com https://deploybook.com), and if you're interested, I'd like to chat about your experience with writing and publishing this book. Please drop me a line moritz.lenz@gmail.com. Also, looking forward to read your book :-)
- madetech 10y agoGreat, will do + you can get me on rory_at_madetech_com
- crindy 10y agoFilled out the form. Sending out free physical books seems like a lot though - what's the motivation behind that?
- madetech 10y agoIt was originally a content marketing experiment. We thought we'd rather have 100 people receive a free printed copy of the book and love us for this, than a 1000 people receive ebooks and end up in their trash. The ROI from the 100 trial worked well, so we decided to try and scale it out to more people. TBD whether we'll see a good ROI from 1000 people, but we hope people enjoy it and like us for sending them a free book!
- lpbonenfant 10y agoDo you ship outside the United States?
- kaizendad 10y agoFilled out the form. Definitely excited to get into a CD environment, rather than the 1-2 deploys/day that I've been exposed to in the past!
- FordPrefectAO 10y agoCD doesn't have to mean 'push every green build to prod'. It's more about the ability to push new functionality when asked by the business, than the fact of always pushing it by default. You may be doing CD well already, knowing just what you have said.
- FordPrefectAO 10y agoOops, I meant CD as in continuous delivery, but that is not what the article is discussing. Sorry! :)
- kaizendad 10y agoMy preconception is that what you said is exactly right, but the idea that one maybe should push every green build to prod -- and the fact that a lot of big-scale companies are doing that -- is really intriguing.
- dEnigma 10y agoGreat service! Just for your information, the "Thanks for signing up!"-message[1] showed up twice when I ordered the book. [1]"Thanks for signing up! Your book is on its way, you should receive it within a few working days."
- adamst85 10y agoVery interesting! I have signed up for a copy. Thank you
