What Happens After You Push?

In this article we are going to be investigating how the code you write gets to
your users. This article is intended for consumption by computer science and
software engineering students to provide insights into technologies and
processes you might encounter in industry. This will be focused specifically on
software delivery in web-based SaaS offerings rather than more traditional
software delivery methods such as those seen in embedded systems. Every software
project has different process for building, testing, and deploying to users and
I’m not going to discuss every possible technology which might be used for each
of these steps. Rather, I’m going to be describing what kinds of software
might be used. I’ll describe how these systems affect the day-to-day work of
software engineers, and I’ll also provide some thoughts on how you might
integrate some of these ideas into your own personal projects.
