How to use environments : Environments in Go is a powerful feature. Environments allow you to associate pipelines with specific agents, and therefore specific hardware or virtualized environments. Go Enviroments also let you model a fan in a deployment pipeline, making it possible to deploy to multiple physical environments independently. We'll go through some of the patterns, benefits, and best practices to get the most out of Go Environments.
