\"performance<\/p>\n

Continuous software delivery in the digital age depends on CI\/CD pipelines<\/a>, which enable engineering teams to rapidly develop, test, and deploy code while maintaining high usability and consistency across environments. However, CI\/CD pipelines \u2014 when systems start small and become complex \u2014 can themselves produce a source of friction. Pipelines set up to work for small projects have difficulty scaling with ever more repositories, larger test suites and larger development teams. Slow feedback cycles, increased infrastructure costs and decreased developer productivity are some by-products of bad pipeline design.<\/p>\n

Here are 10 CI\/CD pipeline mistakes that you\u2019ll often come across as part of normal CI\/CD pipeline activities in your own environment, based on common patterns found in a lot of engineering worlds.<\/p>\n

Considering CI\/CD Pipelines as \u2018Set and Forget\u2019<\/h3>\n

Some teams set up a CI\/CD pipeline at the beginning of a project and then rarely touch it afterward. The pipeline of an application grows as it stacks up without a plan! Test suites get bigger, more build steps are introduced and repositories get bigger. However, without regular review, the pipelines slowly become slower and more complex.<\/p>\n

Frequent monitoring to review pipeline performance should be a team responsibility. CI\/CD pipelines should be reviewed and updated with the underlying software.<\/p>\n

One Big Monolithic Pipeline<\/h3>\n

Another frequent mistake is to build a specific pipeline in charge of all the process of validation and deployment. Such pipelines frequently integrate: Linting, testing, packaging, security scanning and deployment. However, monolithic pipelines are slow and cannot be effectively maintained at scale.<\/p>\n

Instead, the scalable route is to use distinct pipelines, designed for different purposes:<\/p>\n
