How Weedmaps transformed from going from Bi-Weekly releases to multiple releases a day and the various changes we made along the way. This talk will also offer other lessons learned along the way.

Topics to cover:

• Where we are now (multiple releases a day across 15+ projects)
• Where we were a few years ago (Bi-weekly releases/train/coordinated releases across less than 5 projects)
• Just because you are continuously releasing doesn’t mean that you’re practicing good Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployments
• Stopping the chaos
• How we reduced deployment times and improved MTTR (Mean Time to Recovery)
• Using Circle 2
• Gathering Metrics and what to gather
• Standard metrics to measure
• Tools that we use to communicate across teams
• Improving Jira Tickets (3 Cs - Card/Conversation/Confirmation)
• Stickies are cool
• Moving notifications to Slack and pagerduty
