To get a better feel for the state of continuous delivery and how teams are delivering software, LaunchDarkly and Sleuth partnered with DZone to survey software developers, architects, site reliability engineers, platform engineers, and other IT professionals.
For the purposes of this report, we’re defining continuous delivery as the process of releasing new code to quality assurance for testing on a rapid, continuous basis.
Our questions aimed to gain a stronger understanding of the motivations driving the adoption of continuous delivery, metrics being tracked, use of feature flags, and more.
