Software deployment is an important part of the software development process. Applications, modules, updates, and patches are delivered from developers to users through the deployment mechanism. The methods used by developers to build, test and deploy new code will affect how fast a product can respond to changes in customer preferences or requirements.
Over the past two decades, software development teams have created new ways of delivering software that are designed to meet the changing demands of consumers in an increasingly connected world.
Software developers have created workflows that enable faster and more frequent deployment of software updates to the production environment where they can be accessed by users.
Software and web development are the main topics of the following best practices. If you are doing other types of development, there are other things to consider.
Rules for when to deploy from local environments to development or staging sites as well as schedules for when new changes can go to a live environment should be included in a deployment plan. You can reduce the risk of conflicts between different changes by having a set plan.
If you are working on something.
The classic deployment model is left to right when working with multiple deployment environments. In this model, changes are made in local, development, or staging environments and pushed from left to right through different environments ending up in the live environment.
New changes will be visible in the live environment once this deployment process is complete.
