How Architecture and Operations can Support Continuous Deployment: Architecting and operating a highly-available (HA) system without considering how a Continuous Deployment (CD) pipeline might affect it can lead to more risk than you're willing to accept. Building a flexible architecture that can degrade gracefully and remain operating gives a team confidence to deploy frequently. If you're moving to CD, your organization is likely realigning too: operators and support staff for production systems are more involved with developers and product releases. Operations planning is now an integrated effort with developers. This talk covers hints and tips for how to architect and operate HA systems that are under CD.
