DevOps

Overview

Deploy and manage cloud infrastructure across Cloudflare, Docker, Google Cloud, and Kubernetes. Covers the full DevOps lifecycle from containerization to production deployment, monitoring, and security hardening.

When to Use

• Deploying serverless applications to Cloudflare Workers/Pages
• Containerizing applications with Docker and Docker Compose
• Managing GCP resources via gcloud CLI (Cloud Run, GKE, Cloud SQL)
• Kubernetes cluster management (kubectl, Helm)
• GitOps workflows (Argo CD, Flux)
• CI/CD pipelines, multi-region deployments
• Security audits, RBAC, network policies

Platform Selection

Quick Start

# Cloudflare Worker
wrangler init my-worker && cd my-worker && wrangler deploy

# Docker
docker build -t myapp . && docker run -p 3000:3000 myapp

# GCP Cloud Run
gcloud run deploy my-service --image gcr.io/project/image --region us-central1

# Kubernetes
kubectl apply -f manifests/ && kubectl get pods

Best Practices

Security: Run containers as non-root, RBAC access control, store secrets in environment variables, scan images for vulnerabilities

Performance: Multi-stage builds, edge caching, resource limits

Cost: Use R2 for high-egress scenarios, enable caching, right-size resource allocation

Development: Docker Compose for local development, wrangler dev for local debugging, version control Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
