Deploy an application to Google Kubernetes Engine

5/9/2018

I would like to deploy an application to Google Kubernetes Engine(GKE) but I confused between (1) pull a new commit from a master branch from git server inside a container (2) pull a new image that's included new commit from docker hub

Which is the best solution for cost and performance?

If you're hosting code on GitHub/Bitbucket, consider just using Google Container Builder to trigger a new build on every commit and build/push the docker image and deploy it to GKE.

If you're not on github, you can use something like GitOps https://www.weave.works/blog/gitops-high-velocity-cicd-for-kubernetes.

You can use Github Actions, Gitlab CICD or Bitbucket for setting up a CICD pipeline.

For example, Gitlab connects with your GKE using OAuth and gives you the ability to build, test, lint, review and deploy in different environments.
