The complicated Kafka release process
- programd 8y agoI post this as an example of a major project's release process in hopes of spurring some discussion about what should and should not be a good release process. Please note that my goal is not to criticize Kafka - which has a lot of history and accumulated technical debt - but rather to get some perspective on what should be best practices for managing releases in our new and shiny age of DevOps. For the record Kafka is great and I've used it in production, so they are clearly doing a lot of things right.
