I would like to second to Andy Robinson here - try to use less new sexy
tools and try to use an existing infrastructure.
For example, how we build & deploy web services*** at YPlan:
1. A bash script is executed (by Jenkins) on a build machine, which
generates an rpm package with [virtualenv + cod
Speaking as a relatively obsolete dinosaur, I would suggest that if
you are going to discuss specific deployment practices, you start with
the most fundamental ones: SSH, the unix shell and so on.
We have had issues over the years with people coming in and
introducing sexy new deployment tools, b

While we're on topic - what would people say is best practice for testing
of a web API in a way that slots cleanly into a CI setup? Lots of different
options out there, hence the q. (I realise this is also a bit like saying
how long is a piece of string)

Harry -
I think if you're teaching best practices on python and testing, you've got
to teach virtualenv - maybe not for deployment (cause better to have
separate VMs for staging and production) but for development and testing,
really important (unless you do everything in a vm, like vagrant or

Hi everyone, thanks for some helpful thoughts!
@Tim, thanks for pointing out the distinction between provisioning and
deployment, I think that's helped to clarify things in my head a little...
