How to reduce downloading time for releasing pipelines
Downloading unnecessary artifacts can definitely slow down your pipelines. Here are a couple ways to optimize:
Selective Artifact Download: Most CI/CD tools allow you to configure which artifacts are downloaded for each environment. This way, you only download what's needed for that specific deployment. Check your tool's documentation for details on setting this up.
Artifact Caching: Many tools offer artifact caching, where downloaded artifacts are stored and reused in subsequent pipeline runs. This can significantly reduce download times if the artifacts haven't changed.
These are some common approaches, but the specifics might vary depending on your CI/CD tool. If you let me know which tool you're using, I might be able to provide more specific guidance!
