PODCAST: Why the CI/CD Pipeline is Ideal for Government

In this Makpar Fed Mission Success podcast, Grant Moore, a DevOps Engineer at Makpar, discusses why the CI/CD pipeline is ideal for government, and how the Makpar Innovation lab is pioneering this approach.

While DevOps is still relatively new to federal agencies, many are starting to embrace the use of a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. This automated model follows a linear approach to app development through the following stages:

• Development

• Integration

• Quality Assurance

• User Acceptance Testing

• Pre-Production

• Production

In addition to allowing agencies to quickly deploy changes, the CI/CD pipeline automatically makes sure the changes are safe and won’t break the applications. It also depends on a series of platforms called tool chains that help manage the workflow.

The Makpar Innovation Lab offers a scalable and flexible architecture in a server-less and cost-effective environment, when it comes to CI/CD pipeline development – and can bring this flexible app development capability to any federal agency.
