Cloud-Native Continuous Integration and Delivery: Build, test, and deploy cloud-native applications in the cloud-native way

This course teaches concepts by deep-dive on-hand exercises. Throughout the course, you will learn the required toolset by using both on-premise, open-source, and hosted cloud solutions. You’ll find checklists, best practices, and critical points mentioned throughout the lessons, making things more interesting.

Key Features

• Explains in detail cloud-native continuous integration and delivery
• Demonstrates how to run a build in a CI/CD system
• Shows continuous delivery to Docker Registry and continuous deployment to Kubernetes

Book Description

Cloud-native software development is based on developing distributed applications focusing on speed, stability, and high availability. With this paradigm shift, software development has changed substantially and converted into a more agile environment where distributed teams develop distributed applications. In addition, the environment where the software is built, tested and deployed has changed from bare-metal servers to cloud systems. In this course, the new concepts of cloud-native Continuous Integration and Delivery are discussed in depth. Cloud-native tooling and services such as cloud providers (AWS, Google Cloud) containerization with Docker, container-orchestrators such as Kubernetes will be a part of this course to teach how to analyze and design modern software delivery pipelines.
