About This Architecture

GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline automates testing and containerization, pushing Docker images to Docker Hub Registry before deploying to a Kubernetes cluster. The workflow triggers on code commits to GitHub Repository, executing Run Tests and Docker Build stages in sequence. Kubernetes Ingress routes traffic to Service, which load-balances across App Pods managed by Deployment and ReplicaSet, with configuration stored in ConfigMap and Secret resources. This architecture demonstrates GitOps best practices by coupling source control events directly to container orchestration, reducing manual deployment steps and enabling rapid iteration. Fork this diagram on Diagrams.so to customize registry endpoints, add staging environments, or integrate additional CI stages like security scanning.

People also ask

How do I set up a GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline to automatically deploy Docker containers to a Kubernetes cluster?

This diagram shows the complete flow: GitHub Repository triggers GitHub Actions on code commits, which run tests and build Docker images, push to Docker Hub Registry, then deploy to Kubernetes via Ingress and Service routing to App Pods managed by Deployment and ReplicaSet. ConfigMap and Secret resources handle configuration and sensitive data.
