Lectures
This talk focuses on the kinds of constraints we should consider when evolving their architecture of our systems in order to enable rapid, frequent release. So much of the conversation about Continuous Delivery focuses on the design of build pipelines, or the nuts and bolts of CI and infrastructure automation.

I'll be pulling together a series of patterns that will help you identify what to look for in your own systems when moving towards Continuous Delivery.
