A Comparison on Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) on Cloud Based on Various Deployment and Testing Strategies

Abstract

Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery/Deployment (CI/CD) emphasizes the rapid release of small, incremental changes and the use of automation throughout the development process. CI/CD technique is central to DevOps and key to its success. Consumers expect to have continuous interaction with DevOps team so that they can provide their continuous feedback. DevOps is blending of two terms: development and operations which aims to provide conjoin approach to industry’s software development and operation team job in software development lifecycle. Continuous practices, i.e., continuous integration, delivery, and deployment, are the software development industry practices that enable organizations to frequently and reliably release new features and products. Shows the comparison on deployments. With the increasing interest in literature on continuous practices, it is important to systematically review and synthesize the approaches, tools, challenges, and practices reported for adopting and implementing continuous practices.
