The evolving digital landscape has seen 83% of developers exceeding their 2021 code release speeds, necessitating innovative solutions such as mobile Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. CI/CD, a method that reduces manual intervention, allows new code to transition swiftly into production. Currently, 24% of DevOps processes are fully automated, demonstrating the rapid adoption of this technology.
However, despite these strides, full implementation of CI/CD among mobile app developers remains limited. This lag is surprising considering the booming demand for mobile apps, with 7.33 billion global mobile users and over 255 billion mobile app downloads in 2022. With 60% of developers reporting faster code deployment, the call for CI/CD automation has never been louder.
In an unforgiving market environment, real-world complications such as labor shortages, heightened security threats, and demanding customer expectations significantly impact mobile app development. Implementing automated CI/CD pipelines mitigates these challenges, with 35% of developers already experiencing the benefits.
In an era where mobile app developers need to keep up with a rapidly changing ecosystem, it is essential to harness the power of CI/CD pipeline. As Barnabás Birmacher, founder and CEO of Bitrise, says, “In Mobile DevOps, the need for speed is rivaled by the need for confidence.” Adopting mobile CI/CD automation not only speeds up releases but also ensures reliability, thereby driving the future of app development.
