Continuous Delivery Defined
• For the business person:
– Continuous delivery is a methodology that allows you to deliver new
software and update existing software faster, with lower risk
• For the technical person:
– Continuous delivery encompasses the set of activities you use to
ensure you are ready to deploy code and configuration changes into
production at all times
• In relation to Continuous Integration:
– CD extends CI to include the concept of deployment and testing for
production readiness

HP LaserJet FutureSmart Firmware (10M+ LOC)
-
Development costs growing 2.5x from 2004-2008
Up to 10 different branches (driven by each product release)
80-90% of resources just porting existing FW to new products
Unable to add new products to the plans due to lack of FW
resources
- 6 weeks + to get through a complete testing cycle (mainly
manual)
- Ongoing customer issues with consistency and lack of features
- Marketing had essentially given up asking for FW innovations

Why the Difference in Toolchain Choices?
• Dev
– Speed, coding, functionality, quality
– Favor local optimization on process, pet tools, fast feedback
• Ops
–
–
–
–
Auditing, security, compliance, availability, risk avoidance
Favor central control, reproducibility, traceability, process
Much larger set of constraints, rules, surrounding systems

Conclusions
• The Dev and Ops automation tool chains to support
continuous delivery are different, but intersect at
Jenkins
• CloudBees offers a continuous delivery platform based
on Jenkins that runs on-prem, in the cloud, or bridges
those worlds simply and securely
• New features being surfaced in Jenkins are extending
its reach even further to support continuous delivery
