Continuous delivery adds enormous value to the business and the entire software delivery lifecycle, but adopting this practice means mastering new skills typically outside of a developer's comfort zone. In this practical book, Daniel Bryant and Abraham Marin-Perez provide guidance to help experienced Java developers master skills such as architectural design, automated quality assurance, and application packaging and deployment on a variety of platforms.

Not only will you learn how to create a comprehensive build pipeline for continually delivering effective software, but you'll also explore how Java application architecture and deployment platforms have affected the way we rapidly and safely deliver new software to production environments.
