Cloud Foundry Summit Asia 2015

Pivotal Network (network.pivotal.io) is a Rails application that allows users to download PCF and Pivotal Data products. PivNet’s acceptance, staging, and production environments are currently running on Cloud Foundry.

The PivNet team has recently automated our builds, database backups, service integrations, smoke tests, and deployments using Concourse. This level of automation has enabled the team to move more quickly while delivering features to our customers, and has drastically reduced the amount of time spent on these processes.

Concourse has added reliability and stability to all of these processes while providing the team with a dashboard to see and better understand the exact state of each environment.

This talk will include an overview of how we achieved one-button, daily deployments to production via Concourse, as well as tips and tricks we learned along the way.
