METHODS AND SYSTEMS THAT SHARE RESOURCES AMONG MULTIPLE, INTERDEPENDENT RELEASE PIPELINES

摘要

METHODS AND SYSTEMS THAT SHARE RESOURCES AMONG MULTIPLE, INTERDEPENDENT RELEASE PIPELINES ABSTRACT The current document is directed to automated application-release-management facilities that, in a described implementation, coordinate continuous development and release of cloud-computing applications. The application-release- management process is specified, in the described implementation, by application-release-management pipelines, each pipeline comprising one or more stages, with each stage comprising one or more tasks. The currently described methods and systems allow resources to be shared among multiple, interdependent release pipelines and allow access to shared resources to be controlled. [Fig. 1] 66
