The document discusses continuous delivery and describes two common deployment pipeline models. The first is a long linear model showing all possible steps. The second shows two parallel pipeline models that allow teams to deploy to production sooner or to wait for test results. Any long-running tests like UAT can happen after deployment to production. If issues are found, the team should rollback production.
