Bringing joy to Kubernetes Deployments

Destination: deployment! 

Your feature is complete. Your application is ready. You want to share your hard work with the world. How do you pick the optimal deployment process? Where do you even start? 

In this talk, Murriel and Elizabeth will be your guides on a brief tour of several open source tools for deploying a workload into Kubernetes. Our journey will begin with manual hello world deployments and from there we will explore some of the most common modern tools for CI/CD, including a demo speedrun! 

Major destinations on this tour will include helm, kustomize, skaffold, ArgoCD, Tekton, Jenkins and JenkinsX. We will walk through the fundamentals of CI/CD, explore tradeoffs and discuss the process for implementing these tools in your software development lifecycle.

By the end of this talk, you'll be equipped to begin navigating the CI/CD landscape and will leave with resources that will enable you to get started quickly and begin testing in your own environment.
