Summary

In a discussion exploring the challenges of manual tenanted deployments, Andrew Corrigan describes the complexities faced by large organizations, like a UK financial institution with over 200 branches, when deploying software updates without automation. He outlines various strategies such as physically traveling to each location, having branch staff run updates, and using remote installations, each fraught with inefficiencies, risks, and potential for human error. Even with scripting, challenges persist because scripts can introduce errors and may not function uniformly across different updates or locations. Corrigan emphasizes that without deployment automation, software delivery becomes slower and more prone to technical problems, impacting customer relations and organizational efficiency. He concludes by pointing to the benefits of deployment automation, particularly in managing tenanted deployments effectively, and encourages readers to explore solutions like Octopus for more efficient processes.
