Which one is continuous delivery again???

Continuous Delivery Defined Continuous delivery is a software development methodology where the release process is automated. Every software change is automatically built, tested, and deployed to production. Source: Amazon Before the final push to production, a person, an automated test, or a business rule decides when the final push should occur. Although every successful software change can be immediately released to production with continuous delivery, not all changes need to be released right away.

So you're telling me continuous delivery is ghen ghen abi? What has been happening before now? Oya tell me na!

The Old BAE We were basically uploading and downloading files. :)

How do I continuously deliver? Meet BAE's sister → Continuous Integration (CI)

Continuous Integration CI - Continuous integration is a software development practice where members of a team use a version control system and integrate their work frequently to the same location, such as a master branch. Each change is built and verified by tests and other verifications in order to detect any integration errors as quickly as possible

CI / CD Continuous integration (CI) is focused on automatically building and testing code, as compared to CD Continuous delivery (CD), which automates the entire software release process up to production.

THE FLOOR IS LIVE IMPLEMENTATION. A Simple demo using MS Azure and Github to handle Staging and Auto Deployment. Join In: live

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Login to portal.azure.com or create an account. Step 5 Procedure A Git & Azure Create a repo on github, name it forloop-asaba, clone repo on local PC Open your favorite Terminal, create a new file (index.php) Git add, commit & push Click on Create new Web App.

STEP 1

STEP 2/3 Clone the repo on your PC and create a new index file

STEP 4 Create a new web app on azure, select deployment slot from the menu

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Authenticate and Select your branch *master* Step 5 Configure your web App: name, subscription, resource group, App Service plan & OS. Select your App from dashboard, select deployment options Choose your VCS where you code lives Click OK. Browse your app and it should be live. Procedure B - AZURE

STEP 1-4 Choose your source code repository and authenticate

STEP 5 Once you’ve done that, click on browse and you have something similar to this on the right.

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 GOTO Procedure B STEP 3 Step 5 Create a new branch on your repo and push some edit code there Go back to azure, select deployment slots -> click Add slot Configure the slot same way you did for the App step 1 and select configuration source as your previous App Click OK.Browse your app and it should be live with the modification you’ve made and Swap slots Procedure C - Git & Azure

STEP 1-3 Click add slot, choose your configuration source and a name for this slot - features

STEP 1-3 Create a new branch name it feature branch on github, edit your index, commit changes and push.

STEP 1-3 Setup your deployment options and choose the feature branch as shown on the right image.

STEP 5 Result of the newly deployed feature. Now you can swap the slots and make this slot into production

STEP 5 Swaps the feature slot to production and Viola! Now you can always test new features on the feature and swap to production when it’s tested & ready.
