Agile Infrastructure
Summary
The basis of Agile engineering practices is reproducibly building from source code. If software is delivered on servers, and those servers can’t be reproducibly deployed from bare metal to working services, how Agile can you be? Continuous Integration is great, but what about Continuous Delivery? This talk outlines innovations in tools, process, planning and culture emerging at the front lines.
