Sa Isang Sulyap

GitLab CI is GitLab's native pipeline system (similar to GitHub Actions). Features: built-in container registry, Kubernetes integration, artifact caching, protected environments. Popular in enterprises (on-premise GitLab) and security-conscious orgs. Mid-career: $110-155k. Senior architects optimize complex pipelines (100+ stages, multi-region). Mastery: 4-6 weeks.

Ano ang GitLab CI Pipelines

GitLab CI is GitLab's integrated continuous integration/deployment platform. Pipelines are defined in .gitlab-ci.yml (YAML) and trigger automatically on push, merge request, schedule. Key features: built-in container registry (push Docker images), Kubernetes integration, artifact caching, protected environments, runners (shared or self-hosted). Pipelines consist of stages (build, test, deploy) and jobs within each stage. Jobs can run in parallel or sequentially with dependencies. Output is artifacts (compiled binaries, reports) and deployment to environments (staging, production).

❓ FAQ

What's the advantage of GitLab CI over GitHub Actions?

GitLab CI has built-in container registry (push images without Docker Hub). Kubernetes-native (deploy directly to cluster). Better for on-premise (self-hosted GitLab). GitHub Actions easier if already using GitHub.

How do I cache dependencies in GitLab?

Use `cache:` keyword with key and paths. Example: cache npm modules by Node version. Significantly speeds up pipelines.

Can I run pipelines on-premise?

Yes. Register self-hosted runners on your servers. GitLab CI can run on private infrastructure. Common in enterprises.

What are protected environments?

Deployments to production require approval. Protects against accidental deploys. Require manual approval or limit by IP/branch.

How do I handle multi-stage pipelines?

Define multiple stages (build, test, deploy). Jobs in each stage run in parallel; stages run sequentially. Use `needs:` for dependencies.
