  • Beta Customers

  • Canary Releases

  • Release on Demand

  • Iterative Releases

Techniques

  • Strive for multiple releases to customers and avoid big, complex releases. 

  • Multiple internal iterations increases quality, and multiple customer iterations leads to better outcomes.

  • Interact with customers differently, according to their need - some want stability, but other customers want frequent releases.
