Fancy a listen to a new podcast episode? This time, we're diving deep into the world of CI/CD pipelines, the backbone of modern software development! Ever wondered how software goes from a developer's fingertips to your screen so quickly? We'll unravel the mystery of Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery/Deployment (CD), exploring how they automate the building, testing, and releasing of your favourite applications.

In this episode, we'll be taking a good look at some of the key players in the CI/CD landscape, including GitLab CI/CD, Jenkins, Azure Pipelines, Bitbucket Pipelines, GitHub Actions, and Google Cloud Build. We'll explore how these tools help automate your software delivery process, leading to faster delivery cycles, improved code quality through automated testing, and enhanced team collaboration.

We'll also touch upon the importance of practices like maintaining system-agnostic builds and centrally versioning and storing build artifacts. Discover how integrating security tools early in the process (DevSecOps) can lead to more secure software. We’ll also be discussing important concepts like Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for managing your infrastructure with code, and the benefits of using Docker containers for consistent environments.

Tune in to learn how to build faster, more reliably, and with greater confidence!
