From zero to Octopus hero - Getting to know Octopus Deploy

Sarah Lean, a Senior Solutions Architect at Octopus Deploy, shares her initial experiences with the platform as she embarks on a learning journey to master it. Octopus Deploy is a tool designed to automate and streamline software and infrastructure deployments across cloud and on-premises environments, making it valuable for developers and system administrators. Lean explores different installation methods, including cloud, on-premises, and container-hosted setups, and highlights her learning process, which involved overcoming initial challenges and understanding the importance of elements like load balancers, database high availability, shared storage configurations, and the Master Key. Her hands-on experiences reinforce her understanding of deploying Octopus Deploy, especially in high availability scenarios, and she plans to continue expanding her knowledge by learning the platform's terminology, setting up deployments, and exploring integrations with other products.
