Release Train
What Is a Release Train?
A release train is a fixed delivery cadence in which multiple teams align work to a shared release schedule. Instead of releasing at arbitrary times, teams prepare work to depart on the next planned train.
Why Release Trains Matter
Release trains matter because they help organizations:
- coordinate cross-team delivery,
- reduce release chaos,
- create predictable planning windows,
- align product commitments with engineering execution.
