The scenario
A CI/CD pipeline where a new source code commit triggers a sequence of build, test, deploy to staging, manual approval, and deploy to production, with limited environment resources.
What is in this drawing
Read the decisions behind it.
01
Model environments as reusable resource places (BuildEnv, TestEnv, etc.) to enforce resource constraints.
02
Use a transition for approval gate that does not require a separate resource token.
03
Return tokens to environment places after each stage to allow reusability.
When you need to analyze the flow and concurrency of changes in a pipeline with shared, limited resources, or communicate the process to stakeholders.
