Enhancing Software Deployment Efficiency: A Comparative Analysis of Agile Application Deployment Using CI/CD Pipelines

Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of Agile application deployment methodologies, evaluating the effectiveness of deploying applications using Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines versus traditional, manual approaches. Through an extensive examination of case studies and empirical data, this research underscores the remarkable advantages brought about by CI/CD pipelines, including shorter release cycles, reduced human error, enhanced collaboration among development teams, and the ability to seamlessly adapt to evolving requirements. The findings not only confirm the superiority of CI/CD in Agile software deployment but also offer invaluable insights into how organizations can harness this approach to achieve a more responsive and efficient software developmentprocess, ultimately meeting the dynamic demands of today's technology landscape.
