How to build a CICD pipeline for Serverless apps with TravisCI

Seed is a fully managed CI/CD pipeline for Serverless Framework applications. In one of our previous posts we looked at how to build a CI/CD pipeline for Serverless apps on AWS with CircleCI. Today, we’ll look at how to do the same with Travis CI. The purpose of these posts is to dive deep into real-world CI/CD setups, something which most of the tutorials out there skip. We’ll try to illustrate how to set up something similar to Seed but using Travis CI instead.

Setting up a CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins, Nexus, and Kubernetes

This is the first in a series of tutorials on setting up a secure production-grade CI/CD pipeline. We’ll use Kublr to manage our Kubernetes cluster, Jenkins, Nexus, and your cloud provider of choice or a co-located provider with bare metal servers. A common goal of SRE and DevOps practitioners is to enable development and QA teams. We developed a list of tools and best practices that will allow them to iterate quickly, get instant feedback on their builds and failures, and experiment.

16 Ways to Speed Test Automation Using a CI/CD Pipeline

Test automation plays a significant role in software development. It improves speed, better detects errors and bugs, is repeatable, scalable, has broader coverage, and more. Let’s take a look at test automation using a CI/CD pipeline. In today’s competitive world, great speed in developing software, features, and fixes are vital.

Treading in Haunted Graveyards

At Honeycomb, we’ve often discussed the value of making software deployments early and often, and being able to understand your code as it runs in production. However, these principles aren’t specific to only your customer-facing software. Configuration-as-code, such as Terraform, is in fact code that needs to go through a release process as well. Lacking formal process around Terraform deployment means a de-facto process that generates reliability risk.

Integrating Gitlab CI/CD with Sysdig Secure

In this blog post we are going to cover how to perform Docker image scanning on the Gitlab CI/CD platform using Sysdig Secure. Container images that don’t meet the security policies that you define within Sysdig Secure will be stopped, breaking the build pipeline before being pushed to your production Docker registry.

CI/CD/Civo/C-what?

As a cloud provider and DevOps-focused company, we definitely want to practice what we preach. We see the benefits of a modern cloud native architecture, so we built our hosting of www.civo.com and api.civo.com (our application) to take full use of these modern decisions. This post describes our approach to Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) from a Chief Technical Officer's perspective.
