Some like to treat CI different from CD, others say they must be combined. When you talk to customers about deployment strategies and patterns, how do you approach this? Where does GitOps fit into the conversation?Topic 3 - We hear success stories all the time about top performing organizations that do hundreds to thousands of deployments to production a day. Is this a realistic expectation for the average organization? If they want to improve, where do they start? Topic 4 - For organizations that are just beginning the journey, how do you convince internal teams to embrace automation and build confidence over time?Topic 4.5 - Once confidence is built internally, my next thought goes to governance, compliance, & cost? All items that keep developers from going fast. Doesn’t “shifting left” come at a price and builds tension?Topic 5 - Where does security fit into all of this as automation increases? What other design considerations should be taken into consideration creating pipelines? What are the common mistakes you see?Topic 6 - How does AI and ML fit into the present and future for CI/CD?FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet
