Batch Size
What Is Batch Size?
Batch size is the amount of work grouped together and moved through a delivery system as a single unit. Examples include the size of a pull request, the scope of a release, or the number of changes bundled into one deployment.
Why Batch Size Matters
Batch size matters because smaller batches usually:
- move faster through review,
- reduce integration risk,
- simplify rollback and debugging,
- improve delivery flow visibility.
