Brook Shelley, Turbine Labs
Software releases are often costly, slow, and difficult to roll back. This talk will suggest a different way forward with a flexible, incremental, reversible release workflow using tools like a reverse-proxy and customer-centric monitoring. I'll also talk about header and cookie based dev branch tests, and ways to use an incremental release to test internally as well. There will be a short demo of a release gone bad, and one that succeeds, in order to illustrate the principles of this talk. There are some blinky lights, but not many.
