Cloud Foundry Summit 2026

How do you approach continuous deployment pipelines when your systems have fundamentally different architectures? We recently tackled this question while implementing pipelines for two Cloud Foundry components: App Autoscaler and Application Memory Metering (AMM).

App Autoscaler is a complex, multi-service system with numerous applications and dependencies. AMM is a straightforward single-application service. Despite their architectural differences, both needed continuous deployment pipelines—but the paths we took were quite different.

In this talk, we'll compare the two Python pipeline implementations, exploring how system complexity shapes your deployment strategy, what architectural patterns emerged, and which lessons apply regardless of your system's scale.
