in Seattle, Washington
SEATTLE, April 16,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Continuous Delivery

fifth annual cdCon.
CD Foundation announces fifth State of
Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery Report at cdCon
2024
The CD Foundation publishes vendor-neutral data on key DevOps
and development metrics, providing insights into where Continuous
Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) stand in 2024 and
beyond. These findings on DevOps adoption and performance across
industries are based on data from SlashData's past eight Developer
Nation surveys, which reached more than 150,000 respondents
worldwide over three and a half years.
Key findings from this year's report include:
- 83 percent of developers report being involved in
DevOps-related activities
- Less experienced developers adopt fewer DevOps practices and
technologies
- Proportion of low performers for each of the deployment
performance metrics is increasing—a worrying trend
- Strong correlation between the number of DevOps technologies
used by developers and their likelihood of being a top
performer
- CI/CD tools usage is associated with better deployment
performance across all DORA metrics and is greatest among
developers using both managed and self-hosted tools
- Deployment performance is worse when using multiple CI/CD tools
of the same form, likely as a result of challenges related to
interoperability
"The 2024 State of CI/CD Report results show continued high
adoption of CD and DevOps practices, the influence of
well-integrated technologies on organizational outcomes, the
necessity of incorporating security tests in CI/CD workflows, and
the impact of using multiple CD tools on deployment performance,"
says Dadisi Sanyika, CD Foundation
Governing Board Chair.
"The CD Foundation has been promoting standards in CD, securing
the software supply chain, and advocating for better
interoperability. The report findings reflect our community's
ongoing efforts and provide a framework for organizations to
compare their practices with those of their industry peers,
offering insights into where they stand and highlighting areas that
require attention to enhance organizational efficiency."
The State of CI/CD Report is an important resource for
organizations to understand the performance impact of applying
CI/CD practices while highlighting emerging trends. The CD
Foundation would like to thank CloudBees for sponsoring this year's
report.
