At Banzai Cloud we’re building a managed Cloud Native application and devops platform, called Pipeline. Pipeline supercharges the development, deployment and scaling of container-based applications with native support for multi- and hybrid-cloud environments. Pipeline’s built-in CI/CD solution is capable of creating Kubernetes clusters, running and testing builds, packaging and deploying applications as Helm charts, and lots more—all while its secrets are stored and managed by Vault. Note: The Pipeline CI/CD module mentioned in this post is outdated and not available anymore.

Our last post about the Banzai Cloud CI/CD flow described how to build/deploy a Spring Boot application on Kuberbetes. This post does the same for a Node.js application. We’ve teamed up with our friends at RisingStack to streamline Node.js application deployments to Kubernetes (pushable to any cloud provider) with Pipeline, which does all the heavylifting and allows developers to focus on writing the code.

Note: The Spotguides feature mentioned in this post is outdated and not available anymore. In case you are interested in a similar feature, contact us for details. This post showcases how to enable a simple Spring Boot application for the Banzai Cloud CI/CD flow, build and save the necessary artifacts, and deploy it to a Kubernetes cluster. We have already posted about our CI/CD flow several times, and have set up a few example projects to illustrate how it works; this time we’ll show you how to use it with an arbitrary Spring Boot application.
