The thing is different languages lend themselves to different processes. Let's say you have the exact same bug in a web app, maybe you need to modify the where clause in the data layer of the app (or something small like that). In the C# version, you'll have to compile it and then push it. Maybe recycle the pool depending on factors in the architecture. In PHP, you just modify the file and throw it out there. Because of the slight differences, the nature of the way work is done leads to companies designing processes around it.



We're constantly building and deploying as a c# shop. Most of it's automated with canary testing servers.

Clearly not as problematic as the C# option.


That isn't really clear at all.


At my last job we were on Azure and publishing was like a two-click affair.
