Understanding the Core Concepts with an Analogy

Think of deploying software like taking a train journey:

• The train tracks represent the CI/CD pipeline – the path that guides the software from development to production.
• The train cars symbolize the individual services packaged in Docker containers that move along those tracks smoothly.
• If the train needs to switch tracks, that’s where Kubernetes kicks in, managing the delivery and scalability of these train cars.
• Each wheel of the train represents tools like Git for version control, ensuring that every new car added is of high quality and works well with others.
• Finally, monitoring tools like Prometheus are like a control tower overseeing the entire operation, ensuring everything is running on time and nothing is derailing.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

When working in the DevOps sphere, you might encounter some bumps along the way. Here are a few troubleshooting tips:

• Container won’t start: Check your Docker logs. A simple `docker logs ` can reveal what’s amiss.
• Service not responding: Verify your Kubernetes deployments and ensure all pods are running with `kubectl get pods`.
• Pipeline failures: Go through the job logs in GitHub Actions for detailed steps leading to failure.
