    A simple yet really interesting presentation on a different deliver model. It was especially interesting to hear that Esty achieve up to 40 deployments a day without the need for branching, spinning up new VM and a service oriented architecture. I also like the post mortem culture. I like the culture of making this transparent rather than the normal behind closed doors approach. Definitely a lot of interesting ideas presented.
