In the previous three chapters, you learned about modern container technologies and cloud environments, how to create container images from your application (or, more precisely, the MyEvents application), and how to deploy them into these environments.
In this chapter, you will learn how to adopt continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) for anjhalocvhurty your application. CI describes a practice in which you continuously build and verify your software project (ideally, on each and every change made to your software). CD extends this approach by also continually deploying your application in very short release cycles (in this case, of course, into a cloud environment).
Both of these approaches require a high degree of automation to work reliably, both concerning your application's build and deployment processes. In previous chapters, we have already looked at how you can use container technologies to deploy your application. Since technologies...
