Eric, all your videos are awesome. You keep it so simple. You would make a great teacher. Thanks a ton.

Thanks - excellent video and really simple and easy to understand explanation of Continuous Deployment vs Continuous Delivery. Have always seen that process where you have to do a gate review (eyes wide open) to get a decision and a thumbs up to do the final bit and deliver.

Such an easy to understand video thanks so much

Really helped me understand the difference, thanks! :)

Thank you have explained it really well. To confirm continuous deployment is completely automated versus in continuous process the last step is where human intervention is done?

[JohnWick-epqr]

If you have a threshold set of "100% of the tests should pass", then what would be the point of the human intervention of go, no-go decisions? And vice versa if the threshold is set less than 100%, then how would continuous deployment be trustworthy?

Very good debate. I totally understand now when in the insurance/banking domain are so afraid of the "prod-deployment".. its funny cos as you pointed rather build the automation to rollback and leverage the QA as a IT joke "Chuck Norris tests in production" ;-D

Hi, great video! Quick question. What would be the use of having a Staging Server if Continuous deployment is used? I mean the staging server is to check if your development works well so if it's going to pass directly from Staging to Production in contiuous deployment, what would be the use of it ? I mean in Continuous delivery makes totally sense, so I hope someone could explain, thanks

With Q\A is meant a unit testing ? Or some other testing. When we do build we also run all unit test. Without successful passing of unit test is not build ?

Does organizations following Continuous Deployment have SOCII certification? I am asking because I ve experienced an auditor specifically asking for deployment approvals into production.
Seems strange to me.

One question: what exactly is meant by "production". Is it simply referring to deploying the code to where the end-user can actually access it?
