Concept
Continuous integration is a software development practice where code changes are automatically tested and integrated into a shared repository multiple times a day. This approach helps identify and address bugs early, improving software quality and reducing integration problems in the development process.
Concept
Continuous delivery is a software development practice where code changes are automatically built, tested, and prepared for release to production, allowing for more frequent and reliable updates. It emphasizes automation and collaboration to ensure that software can be delivered to users quickly and sustainably with minimal manual intervention.
Concept
Blue-Green Deployment is a strategy for releasing software updates with zero downtime and improved reliability by running two identical environments: one live (blue) and one standby (green). When the new version is verified on the standby environment, traffic is smoothly switched from the blue environment to the green, minimizing risk and ensuring a seamless user experience.
Concept
A canary release is a software deployment strategy that allows developers to release changes to a small subset of users to gauge feedback and detect issues before a full-scale rollout. This approach minimizes risks associated with software changes by closely monitoring the impact on a limited audience and making adjustments as necessary before broader deployment.
Concept
A rolling update is a deployment strategy that incrementally updates a service or application to newer versions without downtime, ensuring continuous availability during the update process. It systematically replaces old instances with new ones, verifying their performance and health at each step to maintain stability and minimize service disruption.
Concept
A/B testing is a method used to compare two versions of a variable, such as a web page or product feature, to determine which one performs better based on a specific metric. It allows businesses to make data-driven decisions by analyzing user interactions and preferences in a controlled, randomized experiment.
Concept
Feature toggles, also known as feature flags, are a software development technique used to enable or disable features in an application without deploying new code. This approach allows for greater flexibility and control in managing features, aiding in smoother rollouts and facilitating continuous integration and delivery.
Concept
Downtime management involves strategies and practices to minimize periods when systems or processes are non-operational, thus reducing productivity losses and maintaining operational efficiency. Effective Downtime management integrates proactive maintenance, real-time monitoring, and swift response protocols to ensure minimal disruption in business operations.
Concept
Rollback procedures are critical processes used in IT and software development to revert a system or application to a previous stable state following a failed update or deployment. These procedures ensure business continuity and minimize downtime by providing a safety net in case of unforeseen issues during changes.
Concept
Load balancing is a method used to distribute network or application traffic across multiple servers to ensure no single server becomes overwhelmed, thereby improving responsiveness and availability. It is critical for optimizing resource use, maximizing throughput, and minimizing response time in distributed computing environments.
Making an app that people can use safely and without problems means we need to make sure it works well, even when things go wrong, and keeps everyone's information safe. We use special tools and tricks to watch how the app is doing and make it easy to share with everyone when it's ready.
Concept
Installation techniques refer to the methods and processes used to set up and integrate systems, equipment, or software into a functional state within a specific environment. These techniques are crucial for ensuring that installations are efficient, reliable, and meet the required standards and specifications.
