What you'll learn

  • Explore an end-to-end solution to build and deploy containerized software artifacts
  • Understand established CI practices and see how they apply to containerized software

Description

Containerization has launched a new wave of software deployment models, but do our philosophies for building, testing, and deploying software still hold true? Tom Adams walks you through creating a build pipeline for Docker images from application compiling to container deployment that is rooted in continuous integration (CI) practices.

Topics include:

  • Goals of CI pipelines
  • How CI practices apply to containerized software artifacts
  • Application and container image versioning
  • Automated testing for multiple container images
  • Basics of building a Docker image
  • Pushing a Docker image to a repository
  • Deploying the Docker image to a EC2 node in AWS
