The Evolution of Depositing: How Effortless It Has Become

An escrow deposit that is always up-to-date is the new standard. Simply uploading the source code a few times a year is no longer sufficient in an era where software releases change frequently. The technology, even in escrow, has been ready for this for quite some time: automated depositing has become the norm.

This marks a significant shift from the past: decades ago, physical paper copies containing typed-out code were submitted. Later, this evolved to using media carriers such as CD-ROMs. Then came secure FTP uploads, and today? We now efficiently use automated integrations with Git repositories.

Say Goodbye to Manual Processes

We’re deliberately writing a blog on this topic because we’ve noticed that customers often assume keeping data up-to-date is a manual, time-consuming, and error-prone process. Nothing could be further from the truth. While updating used to require significant effort, that’s no longer the case. Just as people have evolved, continuous and automated depositing has become the new standard practice.

Easier and More Affordable

Not only is it easier than before—you can’t forget to update—it’s also more efficient. In short, it’s a quick and seamless process: you provide us with access to your Git environment once, and we take care of the rest.

The days of updating the source code of software or infrastructure only a few times a year are long behind us. SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS providers now develop based on Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), which enables frequent updates.
