Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines significantly enhance software delivery by reducing deployment time, improving governance and compliance through secrets management and role-based access control (RBAC), and elevating service quality with integrated testing and feedback mechanisms. While they accelerate time to market by cutting down the average 66-hour pipeline creation time and boosting operational efficiency, they also present challenges such as debugging failures and managing the increased complexity in microservices and cloud migrations. Effective CI/CD implementation requires attention to governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC), as well as ensuring service performance through robust testing and infrastructure management practices. Harness offers solutions to these challenges, providing features for auditing, visibility, and policy enforcement, thus enabling organizations to innovate and improve their software delivery processes efficiently.
