Continuous Delivery. Sounds great.

“But how will it benefit me?” you may be asking.

Will it save you 50% in development time?

Will it reduce defect rates by 38.7%?

Maybe it will reduce downtime by 21.8%.

Or perhaps it can increase employee happiness by 12.91%!

Which in turn could reduce churn and hiring costs by 8.319%…

The truth is, I don’t know how much continuous delivery will help you. Or anyone else.

Every situation is unique. It depends on your starting point. Sometimes it helps a lot. Sometimes it helps a little.

But I’ve literally never seen continuous delivery hurt anyone, any team, any product, or any company bottom line.
