How to create a faster feedback loop through progressive deployment
Using continuous deployment and progressive deployment for software updates accelerate feedback loops to improve development speed and software quality, giving your company a competitive advantage. In our fast-paced world, early and frequent software deployments increase business performance and revenue. Automated deployments enable faster and more reliable updates.
Companies that have generated higher release rates outpaced growth in companies that have not, achieving four to five times faster revenue growth and 20 percent higher operating returns. But those software updates must be high-quality and satisfy users’ needs. An increasing number of customers aren’t giving brands a second chance -- 32 percent of all U.S. customers would stop doing business with a brand they loved after one bad experience. In addition, reliable software is imperative because outages and downtime caused by failed deployments can cost companies anywhere between $100,000 to $5 million per hour.
