!! So Who Is In Charge of Deployments, Anyway?

Mark Imbriaco got me [thinking about software deployments the other day|https://twitter.com/#!/markimbriaco/status/180124451571109888].  He said:

    Deployment and ops are orthogonal. Once people understand this, the world will be a much better place.

I honestly could not decide whether I agreed with that sentiment or not.  After mulling it over for a few days I realized I would have to write a blog post to sort this all out.

!! Why Do I Care?

I'm the manager of the Release Management group at a very large internet company.  Our mission is all about deployments.  We help developers write well-formed packages.  We help QA set up their test environment.  We design and run tests on software releases ourselves to verify correctness.  Finally, we push the code to production.  We push releases to more than 10,000 servers every week and we never stop.

Thus, I think //a lot// about software deployments.
