Integrating Kubernetes with CI/CD Pipelines in Cloud Computing for Enterprise Applications
Keywords:
Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, cloud computingAbstract
Containerizing and fast expanding cloud computing have changed business application deployment and management. Essential for cloud-native infrastructure management, open-source container orchestration technology Kubernetes can run, resize, and deploy application containers across clusters of hosts. CI/CD pipelines have to quickly integrate and deploy code changes to run apps automatically.
We investigate Kubernetes integration with CI/CD processes for business cloud computing. It looks at how CI/CD and Kubernetes may automate difficult chores and simplify container orchestration to increase reliability, scalability, and efficiency of corporate applications.
First covered are Kubernetes' architecture, components, and capabilities. Using Kubernetes's control plane, apiserver, etcd, scheduler, controller-manager, worker nodes, kubelet, and proxy, containerized workloads The paper suggests Kubernetes for cloud providers for load balancing, self-healing, and service discovery as well as for microservices designs.
We then demonstrate why modern software development calls for CI/CD pipelines. Examined are continuous integration, testing, deployment, and monitoring to reduce human error, application delivery, and deployment timesframes. We highlight CI/CD pipeline integration, version control, automated testing, and deployment automation.
