This week I held a session at Social Connections 14 in Berlin where I talked about „Running Microservices in Production with IBM“. In my talk, I gave a short introduction to IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service (IKS) as well as IBM Cloud Private (ICP) and explained how to use both to build, deploy and run your applications. A part of my talk was a demo, where I showed how to build an automated and integrates build pipeline based on IBM Cloud Toolchain. In a second example, I used Gitlab CI/CD to automate the build and deployment process.
