ah good, a visitor!
are you experiencing build problems? is
your pipeline red, all the time? not
able to deploy for hours or even days? we
had the same problem until we created
the UFO! Wi-Fi, rest, HTTP(s), low energy
dual-core CPUs and 34 high intensity RGB
LEDs. our pipeline was sometimes broken
for hours now that the UFO is
visualizing the state of it. we were able
to bring down the time to fix the
pipeline to minutes.
(german) no one noticed that our pipeline was broken. we were completely
unable to deploy to production. i had to contact the developer teams myself!
they had to fix the pipeline, before we were able to deploy again.
honestly we needed to change our culture.
production readiness has to be in the
hands of developers. they own the code no
one else. this is paul. paul hasn't
slept very well last night and is longing for
coffee.
unfortunately paul has not tested his
code properly and checks in breaking
changes. now normally in such a situation
the whole pipeline would fail.
operations would need to track down the
error manually. every single developer
would be impacted. fortunately there is
the UFO. so let's figure out what
happens next.
as you can see the real-time
visualization of the pipeline state has
already triggered a beneficial response.
paul is immediately handling the
situation by fixing the problem.
