CI/CD on GCP: Cloud Build and Deploying to GKE
How Cloud Build executes CI/CD pipelines as a sequence of containerized steps, and a worked example that builds a container image and deploys it to GKE automatically on every push.
Learning objectives
- Explain Cloud Build's step-based execution model and how it differs from a traditional always-on CI server
- Write a cloudbuild.yaml that builds, tags, and pushes a container image to Artifact Registry
- Wire a Cloud Build trigger to automatically build and deploy on every push to a repository branch
- Extend a basic build pipeline to deploy a built image to a GKE cluster
