- sytse 10y agoI'm sorry to hear that. I should have probably included a drawing. Can others maybe paraphrase what they think it means or does it not make sense to anyone?
- wmf 10y agoYou're saying that people used to edit locally, build locally, test locally, then upload to staging/the cloud; now you upload to the cloud first, then build/test/etc. (Of course, people did it this way with Heroku for years because it was harder to build locally, then the pendulum swung back with Docker...)
- sytse 10y agoExactly, thanks!
- atsaloli 10y agoThe usual pipeline looks something like this: Dev -> QA -> Ops or Idea -> Design -> Build -> Test -> Deploy -> Maintain For example, Infrastructure Operations used to be responsible for providing a Test environment, now developers can test without Ops because tools like GitLab automatically provision test environments on demand (and then destroy them when they are no longer needed). You still need Ops to take care of that CI system, but you don't need as many personnel.
