I had the incredible luck to learn programming in a shop that practiced something very close to what you describe as Continuous Delivery down to having a group devoted to what is now called DevOps. A decade before I started in the 70s, they worked with IBM to create CICS and maintained an in-house version called Pronto. I learned to write code for distributed systems by fixing production bugs and rewriting parts that suffered from the entropy of earlier misguided fixes. The data was distributed over time, not space. We were the electric utility for Chicago and surrounding suburbs. The customer dataset was so large that it took a week of nightly runs to process the entire thing and everything happened in cycles of various lengths. Anyway, I just wanted to point out that CD is a great but not necessarily new idea.
