Cloud computing is helping developers increase software delivery, according to a recent survey, with nearly 26 percent of developers in a recent survey releasing updates or new versions at least once a day, while more than 63 percent release at least once a week.
Evans Data's Cloud Development Survey, conducted late last year, tabulated responses from 436 developers who either deploy to clouds or use cloud-based development tools; results were released this week. In addition to developers releasing rapid updates or new releases via the cloud, Evans also found that 51 percent feel cloud computing in general will improve coordination between development and operations and thus assist with continuous delivery.
