Guide

CI/CD with Docker & Kubernetes

Learn how to deliver cloud-native applications at high velocity.

  • ✔️ The key benefits of using Docker containers and how to attain them.
  • ✔️ How deployment to Kubernetes works.
  • ✔️ How our culture and delivery tools need to change to fully benefit from the agility that containers and cloud can offer.
  • ✔️ Execute a detailed roadmap to adopting containers.

Software developers lose focus and time by waiting for code changes to propagate through slow CI/CD pipelines. That goes unnoticed because everyone assumes it’s inevitable.

Containers are hard

Containers change how developers build, test, and deploy code. Adopting them takes time. Using them the wrong way can slow down your delivery process.

But you don’t have a team of engineers to dedicate to this like Spotify or Netflix do. Maybe you’re a startup CTO with features to ship — you can’t spend hundreds of hours on internal systems.

Using this free ebook as a guide, you won’t need a dedicated sysadmin to have a productive container-based CI/CD process.
