In this episode we make a bold argument: stop using separate environments for development, testing, acceptance, and production - commonly called DTAP. Why? Because DTAP-pipelines create queues and accumulate all sorts of waste. Not only does this cost you a lot in terms of money and effort, they also make it harder to respond quickly to changing needs and emerging issues.
In this episode, we explore what the problem with DTAP-pipelines is. We also offer a number of alternative strategies that allow you to deploy faster AND with higher quality and reliability.
