eZ Platform Cloud and eZ Launchpad: Don’t Host, Don’t Deploy, Don’t Install—Just Code!
1 like645 views
eZ Launchpad is a Docker-based tool that simplifies local development by automatically installing and configuring the necessary services for an eZ Platform project. It allows developers to focus on coding by handling infrastructure tasks. eZ Platform Cloud builds on this by offering a PaaS that hosts the application and provides a unified development workflow with automatic deployments on merge. It reduces DevOps efforts by 80% by eliminating the need for manual testing and deployment on separate environments. eZ Launchpad can also be configured to integrate with Platform.sh for automatic deployments of code merged to the main branch. This enables continuous delivery of features to production with immediate user testing on review environments.
