GitHub Actions CI/CD | Build Docker Image & Deploy to Kubernetes using Self-Hosted Runner

Description

In this video, we build a complete end-to-end CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions, Docker, and Kubernetes. We use a self-hosted GitHub Actions runner to: • Build a Docker image • Push the image to GitHub Container Registry (GHCR) • Deploy the application to a Kubernetes cluster • Expose the service locally using port-forwarding This video covers real-world problems like: • Docker permission issues on self-hosted runners • GHCR authentication and imagePullSecrets • Kubernetes ImagePullBackOff errors • Liveness and readiness probe failures • LoadBalancer vs NodePort vs port-forward • Killercoda Kubernetes limitations 📌 Tech Stack Used: • GitHub Actions • Self-Hosted Runner • Docker & GHCR • Kubernetes • FastAPI This tutorial is perfect for: ✔ DevOps Engineers ✔ SREs ✔ Platform Engineers ✔ Anyone learning real-world CI/CD 🔔 Subscribe to **Uptime University** for production-ready DevOps content. #githubactions #kubernetes #cicd #docker #devops #fastapi #ghcr
