A Children's A to Z of Continuous Delivery
A Children's A to Z of Continuous Delivery
About the Book
Hello! Continuous Delivery is really important, but it's also really hard. Denise Yu and Steve Smith thought it might be fun to share with you a friendly introduction to the best bits of Continuous Delivery, in a medium that everyone can understand.
This 26-page book will provide an overview of Continuous Delivery from "A to Z" in the form of sketchnotes. From "A is for Automation" to "I is for Incremental Deployment" and onto "Z is for Zzzzzz", we've got you covered.
Who Should Read This Book
New and experienced practitioners of Continuous Delivery. Kids. Anyone who likes drawings of cats using computers.
Foreword
The foreword to this book will be written by Dave Farley, co-author of the Jolt Award winning Continuous Delivery, published in Martin Fowler’s Signature Series (Addison Wesley, 2010). Dave's a big kid at heart, and likes drawings of cats using computers.
