In this chapter, we discussed how decoupling deployment from release allows self-sufficient, full-stack teams to shift deployments all the way to the left on the timeline. This helps to minimize risk and increase throughput by deploying small batch sizes, and ultimately delivers features by enabling feature flags for targeted groups of users. Decoupling deployment from release requires multiple levels of planning. The release roadmap defines how the desired functionality is divided into slices. Each slice is designed as an experiment to elicit feedback from customers about the correctness of the value proposition. A deployment roadmap defines the ordered set of tasks needed to implement a specific story as a series of task branch workflows. We discussed how a task branch workflow governs an individual instance of a deployment pipeline that is implemented using a modern...

Overview of this book
Build systems that leverage the benefits of the cloud and applications faster than ever before with cloud-native development. This book focuses on architectural patterns for building highly scalable cloud-native systems. You will learn how the combination of cloud, reactive principles, devops, and automation enable teams to continuously deliver innovation with confidence.
Begin by learning the core concepts that make these systems unique. You will explore foundational patterns that turn your database inside out to achieve massive scalability with cloud-native databases. You will also learn how to continuously deliver production code with confidence by shifting deployment and testing all the way to the left and implementing continuous observability in production. There's more—you will also learn how to strangle your monolith and design an evolving cloud-native system.
By the end of the book, you will have the ability to create modern cloud-native systems.
