Software deployment control using blockchain

Abstract:

A method for controlling the deployment of a software application may include responding to a user committing a programming code implementing the software application by determining whether the programming code passed a plurality of tests required for deploying the programming code to a production system. In response to determining that the programming code passed the plurality of tests, one or more blocks indicating that the programming code has passed the plurality of tests may be inserted into a blockchain. The programming code may be deployed to the production system. The deploying of the programming code may include traversing the blockchain to verify a presence of the one or more blocks in the blockchain. Related systems and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.
