Microservices deployment terminology simply includes steps that start with code changes till release. In this section, we will discuss all these steps of deployment terminology as follows:
- Build: In the build stage, the service source gets compiled without any errors along with the passing of all corresponding unit tests. This stage produces build artifacts.
- Continuous Integration (CI): CI forces the entire application to build again every time a developer commits any change—the application code gets compiled and a comprehensive set of automated tests are run against it.

This provides confidence that the software is in a workable state. Even if a check-in made by a developer...
