Excerpt
As Red Hat consultants, we are often called upon to assist clients in the deployment and widespread adoption of OpenShift as their container management platform. They are drawn to OpenShift as a technology enabler for increased agility and responsiveness. In this context, change-ability can be the most critical of nonfunc‐ tional requirements. Continuous improvement needs continuous user feedback. We have found that the ability to push, test, and then roll forward or roll back small application changes to live users can become critical to realizing such benefits. In this book we want to help you implement DevOps practices using OpenShift so that you can quickly deliver quality applications that will make a difference for your users.
