The 10 Commandments of Release Engineering

A system administrator who is educated in the features of a well-designed build and release process can become proactive and make sure that the products being developed internally and purchased are deployable and maintainable. I will present 10 commandments that I have found to be truths in my 20 years of building commercial software. This talk will help sysadmins understand more about how decisions made during the release engineering process can positively (or negatively) impact the successful deployment of software and will arm them with the ability to develop their own commandments and communicate those truths to vendors and development groups.
