In the previous post, you learnt how to deploy a basic Dockerized Spring Boot application to AWS Fargate. Wouldn’t it be great if this manual configuration could be provisioned from a plain text file which can be part of your version control system? With a single action, all necessary resources are configured in the right order. In this post, you will learn how to create an AWS CloudFormation template. Enjoy!

You are looking for an easy way to automatically build your application in the Cloud? Then maybe Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Cloud Build is something for you. In this post, we will build a Spring Boot Maven project with Cloud Build, create a Docker image for it and push it to GCP Container Registry.

The past year, we wrote some articles using Minikube as Kubernetes cluster in order to experiment with. In this post, we will take our first steps into Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and more specifically of Kubernetes Engine. Let’s see whether going to the Cloud makes our lives even easier ;-). Â We will create a GCP account, create a Kubernetes cluster, deploy our application manually and deploy by means of Helm.
