CONTINUOUS DELIVERY: DE VISIE
When somebody has a good idea, how do we get this idea in production as

Higher Quality + automation = lower cost + faster + predictable
Moving to production is (and should be) a business decision
Continuous deployments.

17. Stelling
“Om te beginnen met Continuous Delivery moet je eerst management overtuigen.
