The use case: how Contentful deploys CircleCI
Contentful uses CircleCI for CI/CD across its engineering organization, running tests and deployments for every change to its app. It helps onboard engineers, scale without managing capacity, and manage the move from monolithic apps to microservices.

Bourne says that CircleCI has been especially beneficial for more junior developers at Contentful because they know they’re not at risk of accidentally breaking the entire platform. “You don’t have to rely on a more senior engineer to know if your changes are good,” he says.
