A Year of Continuous Deployment: Lessons Learned

About a year ago, we started working on the Run Insights feature for CloudBees DevOptics. A small team of engineers (averaging around three to four of us) worked on the Run Insights service over the course of the past year. The Run Insights service gave us the opportunity to develop a greenfield service using continuous deployment from the very start.

One year, and over 343 deployments later, I thought it would be a good idea to share what we have learned from our experience.
