WP Engine Pipelines provides the Git-based deployment workflow for managing code changes on WP Engine's Managed Hosting Platform.
Deployment Workflow
Section titled “Deployment Workflow”- Git-based changes: Manage application updates through a version-controlled workflow.
- Environment isolation: Develop and test changes in separate environments before deploying to production.
- CI/CD integration: Connect deployments to the tools and processes your development team already uses.
- Production promotion: Move approved changes through your environment workflow before they reach production.
Deployment Guardrails
Section titled “Deployment Guardrails”Pipelines helps teams use consistent deployment practices across Autoscale environments.
- Deployment guardrails: Apply approved practices to reduce the risk of unsafe production changes.
- Reversible deployments: Recover quickly by returning to a previous deployment when necessary.
- Clear deployment history: Review what changed during each deployment when troubleshooting or planning a rollback.
- Autoscale support: Use Pipelines as the required deployment workflow for Autoscale.
When to Use Pipelines
Section titled “When to Use Pipelines”Use Pipelines when your team needs a structured, Git-based workflow for deploying code to WP Engine environments. Pipelines is required for Autoscale because Autoscale pairs elastic infrastructure with a controlled deployment process.
