How long does it typically take your team to deploy a basic “Hello World” application from development to production, considering administrative tasks like approvals, security checks, and process overhead?

I’m curious to hear about experiences in different companies and environments where deployment processes involve administrative hurdles.

• What administrative tasks generally slow down the deployment process?
• How long does it usually take in your company to get through these tasks from start to production?
• Are there any strategies or tools that help streamline these tasks?

Please also mention the size of your company and the industry you work in (e.g., eCommerce, finance, healthcare, etc.).
