Octopus Deploy enables configuration as code in latest update

Continuous deployment orchestration provider Octopus Deploy has announced the release of its configuration as code feature as part of its 2022.01 release

According to the company, typically DevOps engineers don’t have visibility into their CI/CD pipeline configurations, preventing them from adding new features to that configuration. Many of the available “as code” implementations often compromise on usability and require developers to learn a new language in order to use them. 

With Octopus Deploy’s configuration as code capability, developers will be able to see the deployment process in Git alongside their application code. This makes it easier to evolve them both alongside each other. 

Developers can also work in the environment they prefer, or use the Octopus UI to do tasks like configure a Git repository, select a branch, and commit changes. Octopus Deploy has also built a Visual Studio Code extension for editing configuration files. 

Other features of configuration as code include the ability to support multiple versions of the deployment process, utilize pull requests, view the history of changes, and revert to a previous version of the deployment process.

“Config as Code has been one of the most requested features from our community. But when we asked customers about Config as Code in other products, we heard positives and negatives. They spoke about the power of Git and version controlling their processes, but also about their reduced user experience and the frustration of hand-writing YAML. So we set out to build something better. We wanted to give customers all the upsides of Config as Code, with none of the downside,” said Paul Stovell, founder and CEO of Octopus Deploy.

Difference between Web Designer and Web Developer Neeraj Mishra The Crazy Programmer

Have you ever wondered about the distinctions between web developers’ and web designers’ duties and obligations? You’re not alone! Many people have trouble distinguishing between these two. Although they collaborate to publish new websites on the internet, web developers and web designers play very different roles. To put these job possibilities into perspective, consider the construction of a house. To create a vision for the house, including the visual components, the space planning and layout, the materials, and the overall appearance and sense of the space, you need an architect. That said, to translate an idea into a building, you need construction professionals to take those architectural drawings and put them into practice.

Let’s get going, shall we? What Does a Web Designer Do?

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are declaring 20
