In the last decade multiple IT organizations jumped head first into CI - in an utopian belief that with enough time and investment the CI pipeline will take them straight into the promised land of CD. But things rarely go as expected. The reality is that until now most of us can't continuously and safely deploy to production - if it's because of lack of confidence, security concerns or contractual obligations. The number of outages caused by production updates is growing and the ever-increasing observability of our systems doesn't make SRE work any less stressful. Cloud native technologies are supposed to make operating complex distributed systems easier - but the CD gap is still not closed. New approaches such as GitOps and Progressive Delivery strategies are getting more widely known but are still hard to pull off for anyone but the most technologically advanced teams. We at Canarian and Otomato believe CD doesn't have to be so hard. In the last 4 years we've helped a number of orgs with their continuous deployment effort - both for SaaS and enterprise systems. We clearly see the need for better tooling and semantic change management that will allow us to modify information systems with heightened agility, stability and built-in support for continuous experimentation. I the talk I outline the CD solution we are working on, explain what features it brings to the table and how this will revolutionize software delivery in the cloud native world.
