Thinking Inside the Container - A Continuous Delivery Story

Explore the journey of Riot Games in revolutionizing their software build infrastructure through containerization. Learn how a team of four engineers transformed a system handling 3000 build jobs across hundreds of applications into a scalable, Docker-based solution processing over 10,000 containers weekly. Discover the decision-making process behind adopting Docker, the evolution of Riot's build infrastructure, and the integration of open-source and in-house software to achieve goals at scale. Gain insights into best practices, lessons learned, and unique aspects of their system, including automated testing of submitted build environments and testing node.js apps in containers with Chromium and xvfb. This technical talk provides valuable knowledge for teams looking to implement agile delivery methods and empower engineers with greater control over their build environments.
