Book Description

When adopting cloud infrastructure, professionals are often looking to modernize how they automate workflows such as Continuous Integration and Software Delivery. In doing so, they often want to minimize or remove operational overhead, turning to fully managed solutions like Cloud Build. They may encounter challenges in learning Cloud Build's API and build schema, scalability and security, and integrating Cloud Build with other external systems.

The book will start with an introduction to Cloud Build and then move to configuring the architecture and environment in which builds run to the execution of the build. You will then focus on diving into writing and configuring full-featured builds, how to execute them with security best practices in mind. You will then review Cloud Build functionality in the context of practical applications, including secure CI/CD for GKE, managing safe rollouts of cloud infrastructure via Infrastructure as Code, and building a workflow from local source to production in Cloud Run. You will wrap up with integration of Cloud Build and managing rollouts with Cloud Deploy.

By the end of this book, the readers will be able to automate their workflows efficiently and securely leveraging the foundation of Google Cloud Build.
