WHAT: Remediation Patterns – How To Achieve Low Risk Releases

Deployments gone bad are a leading cause of spending your evening or weekend hunched over a terminal instead of outdoors having fun. In this talk, Humble presents a number of patterns which reduce the risk of releases, including techniques for zero-downtime releases, roll backs and roll forwards. He also will discuss how to build reliable releases into the delivery process using automated provisioning, deployment and smoke testing. By the end of the talk, attendees will understand how to build delivery systems – and teams – that make broken deployments a rare situation which can be fixed at the push of a button.
