About us
Octopus Deploy sets the standard for Continuous Delivery (CD), empowering software teams to deliver value in an agile way. Globally, more than 4,000 organizations rely on our Continuous Delivery, GitOps, and release orchestration solutions to deliver swift value to their customers. At Octopus, we create happy deployments, and by extension, happy software teams. Founded in 2012, our vision is for all software teams to look forward to deployment time; to be excited about seeing their changes deployed and used by their customers. We want them to deploy more and more frequently, and to feel 100% confident it will just work. Octopus efficiently orchestrates software delivery across multi-cloud, Kubernetes, data centers, and hybrid environments, whether containerized modern apps or heritage applications. With governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) at its core, Octopus supports Platform Engineering teams in their mission to provide a superior developer experience (DevEx). Octopus also actively contributes to the developer community with open-source projects. Handle complex software delivery at any scale with Octopus Deploy.

Octopus Deploy
DevOps Software
Octopus Deploy sets the standard for deployment automation for DevOps. We help software teams deploy freely – when and where they need, in a routine way. More than 3,000 organizations and 350,000 users worldwide use our universal deployment automation solution to simplify their complex deployments. Release: Set once, deploy often. Configure your deployment steps, create a new release, and use that process consistently across your environments. Deploy: Octopus makes deployments simple and consistent wherever you deliver software. Deploy to the cloud, data centers, or on-premises servers without duplication. Configure: Octopus knows environments can differ. Manage those differences and keep deployments reliable with snapshots and variables. Operate: Octopus Runbooks helps automate routine and emergency operations with the same best practices as deployments. Measure: Octopus's DevOps Insights uses DORA metrics to tell you exactly how you're performing so you can find areas for improve.

Join us for a webinar introducing Ephemeral Environments in Octopus! Ephemeral Environments let you use pull or merge requests to quickly spin up testing environments linked to feature branches. This gives you an isolated environment for testing code changes and replicating bugs, without affecting the main lifecycle environments. After you merge or close the pull/merge request, the environment spins down automatically. This new feature helps DevOps and application engineers find issues earlier when they’re easier and less costly to address. Tune in to see Ephemeral Environments in action, learn how to use them, and ask your questions live. Speakers: Harriet Alexander, Product Manager at Octopus Deploy Geoff Lamrock, Lead Software Engineer at Octopus Deploy
