3. Why CI/CD?
❏ Smaller code changes are simpler to release and carry less unexpected consequences
❏ Newly introduced bugs are easier to troubleshoot and/or rollback
❏ Short Cycles + Automation + Monitoring = Reduction in downtime, manual efforts and costs
❏ Business Value is delivered faster
❏ Increased visibility and transparency on what teams are doing

4. Some Challenges Of CI/CD
❏ Not enough tests or existing tests are not reliable
❏ Some steps need manual intervention (e.g. merge conflicts)
❏ Fear of being replaced or unknown consequences
❏ Blame culture and silos
❏ Change Management Process

5. CI/CD At Third Bridge
Our ToolStack Our Approach
❏ Devops Function builds a
Software Delivery Pipeline
System that enables teams
to fully automate their
deployments.
❏ Teams choose what bits of
the whole process they want
to automate.
❏ Lack of tests? Fine. What
would QA do?
❏ We slowly introduce
changes that enable CI/CD
best practices

6. How Does It Work?
PROD stages - MASTER
branch only
Non-prod stages - All
branches

7. Inside view of CircleCi pipeline
For any other branch than MASTER the Prod stages
will not be executed

How the workflow looks like?
A workflow defines a collection of jobs and their run order
The jobs are the stages of the pipeline
The context provides a mechanism for sharing environment
variables across projects. The environment variables are
injected at runtime.
The requires defines a sequential job execution
This is a branch filter to prod jobs. They will run only if the
branch is master.

9. If all good in the staging environment...

10. Well sometimes most of the times things go wrong...
