Deploying the Microservice as a Docker Container
Todd Raymond Sharp · Apress eBooks · 2022
Welcome to the penultimate chapter in this journey about continuous integration and continuous deployment. So far in this book, we have gone over a copious number of topics related to building and automated testing and deploying of a microservice using many popular tools in the Java and open source ecosystem. Honestly, there is not much left to talk about as it relates to the basics of continuous integration and deployment of microservices. There is however one more topic that we would be remiss to not mention, and that is building and deploying our microservice as a Docker container onto a Kubernetes cluster. It’s not terribly complicated to do this, but we’ll break this last topic up into two separate blog chapters. In this chapter we’ll focus on building our Docker container.
