Deploying to Spring boot apps to Kubernetes with GitHub Actions and feature flags

By Brian Benz

Elevator Pitch

Learn how to reliably and securely deploy to Kubernetes using feature flags, AB Testing, and blue-green deployments with GitHub actions and GitHub repositories.

Description

Developer teams are constantly under pressure to deliver new features and functionality without impacting core applications. In this session we’ll show how to add new application features reliably and securely to spring boot applications without changing the core application or impacting core business activity. Highlights will include employing feature flags, AB Testing, and blue-green deployments using GitHub actions and GitHub repos, plus powerful cloud services based on serverless technologies, and managed container orchestration using Kubernetes.

Notes

All the demos and technologies used are open-source and free.
