How Cloud Build optimises your development processes
CI developers used to frequently integrate programme codes into git. With Cloud Build, they can submit content as many times as necessary. They need not develop each function module separately or wait until the end of a development cycle to submit in turn. Cloud Build, an excellent tool, can let them finish submissions and updates of content more quickly and often. CI has recently played a more and more important role in DevOps. Efficient CI can optimise enterprises’ development processes as well as ensure fast and effective services.
With experiences in previous Cloud platforms, Google can offer large-scale and high-quality Cloud CI tools. You can employ Cloud Build to automate and run repetitive CI processes irrespective of the size of organisation. To put it simply, Microfusion has listed the advantages of Cloud Build as follows:
- An utterly serverless platform – it is not necessary to pay in advance or reserve any servers but it allows a scale-up or -down according to responses.
- Flexibility – customised construction steps and matched with a third-party APP. Users can easily connect to On-Premises tools and adjust development processes in their favour.
- Security and compatibility – developers can carry out in-depth security scans and make sure only credible container images are deployed.
As Google’s top agency, Microfusion can provide you with technical support relevant to Cloud Build in order to have a smooth integration development.
