In this presentation, I will share my experience leading a documentation team to efficiently and agilely develop and deliver documentation for a series of cloud software products.

I will introduce how we built a DITA-based technical documentation repository from scratch, established a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline for documentation automation, and fine-tuned and deployed a large language model (LLM) to enhance documentation translation.

Takeaways

1. Implement an enterprise-ready CI/CD pipeline to reduce documentation delivery time by 50%.  

2. Apply LLM fine-tuning techniques to improve multilingual documentation accuracy.  

3. Balance agility with compliance in cloud software documentation workflows.
