Hands-On Microservices with Kubernetes

Rolling your own

I briefly considered creating my own simple CI/CD pipeline. The operations are not complicated. For the purpose of this book, I didn't need a very reliable solution, and it would have been easy to explain exactly what happens at each step. However, with the reader in mind, I decided that it was best to use existing tools that can be utilized directly and also save me time developing a poor CI/CD solution.

At this point, you should have a good idea of the different options for CI/CD solutions on Kubernetes. We reviewed most of the popular solutions and chose CircleCI and Argo CD as the best fit for the Delinkcious CI/CD solution. Next, we'll discuss the hot new trend of GitOps.
