Implementing a continuous delivery (CD) pipeline is not trivial, and the introduction of container technology to the development stack can introduce additional challenges and requirements.
This session looks at the high-level steps that are essential for creating an effective pipeline for creating and deploying containerized applications.
Topic covered include:
- The impact of containers on CD
- Adding metadata to container images
- Validating NFR changes imposed by executing Java applications within a container
- Lessons learned the hard way (in production)
The eBook “Containerizing Continuous Delivery in Java” is also available which contains instructions and code for how to create a Jenkins-based continuous delivery pipeline that takes a series of Java applications and containerizes them, ready for functional and nonfunctional testing, and ultimately, deployment.
