Ask HN: What are you using for Continuous Deployment (CD)?

5 points by rkrzr ↗ HN
We are currently working on supporting continuous deployments, but it seems that no suitable tools are available. We don't have particularly outlandish requirements, we want something that:

- Can be triggered via a webhook or from a GitHub PR/comment - Can queue up multiple releases (of the same or different services) and deploy them in series - Flexibility (works not only with Kubernetes)

So far we've looked at Tekton, Buildbot, and GoCD. It seems none of them support our use cases: GoCD and Tekton don't support queuing of releases and Buildbot requires so much customization that we might as well continue building our own solution.

What do other modern medium-sized software companies use to make continuous deployment a reality?

we use bigquery at the fortune 500 company I currently contract for
How are you using BigQuery for CD? Not even mad just impressed
GitHub actions. It queues deploys. There are a surprising number of freely available deploy actions.

Likely doesn't satisfy your requirements, but we are using ArgoCD.
