CI/CD pipeline I DevOps

Continuous integration & Continuous delivery (CI/CD) are often cited as two different pillars of successful DevOps. First, it was Waterfall, then it was Agile, and now it is DevOps. This is how current era developers approach building great products. The rise of DevOps has come to the fresh newest techniques of Continuous Delivery, Continuous Integration (CI/CD), and Continuous Deployment.

Continuous Deployment

Continuous integration focuses on blending the work products of individual developers together into a repository. This is often done various times every single day, and the prime purpose is to enable early detection of integration bugs, which should eventually result in tight cohesion & more development collaboration.

The aim of continuous delivery is to reduce the friction points that are inherent in the deployment or release processes. Generally, the implementation covers automating every single step for build deployments such that a safe code release can be done eventually — at any time or moment.

Continuous deployment is a higher degree of automation, in which a build/deployment occurs automatically whenever an enormous modification is made to the code.
