File -> new project to deploy in 10 minutes with TeamCity and Octopus Deploy
If you are sitting in a .NET-project where it takes hours or days to deploy or set up deployment of a new project this talk is for you. I will in this talk show you how to configure TeamCity and Octopus Deploy to be able to set up new deployments in a matter of minutes rather than hours or days.
To be able to set up deployment in minutes and deploy at the same speed enables you to try new things and respond to errors faster. If you have confident in how you do deployment a lot of the fear of deploying will disappear and you can focus on developing great applications instead of being afraid of breaking something.
The configuration I’ll present is a setup I’ve put together after introducing TeamCity and Octopus Deploy for multiple customers with great success. I’ve successfully managed to simplify the deployment process of regular web applications, EPiServer applications, Windows Services and even SharePoint. I will also cover the most of the features in Octopus Deploy, which include deployment to Azure and database migrations.
I have two goals with this talk:
When you leave this you’ll have the tools necessary to setup a smooth continuous integration environment with deployment.
The next time you do a deployment you’ll do it with a smile instead of fear of breaking anything.
