CI/CD Platform Engineering

A book-shaped table of contents for CI/CD platform engineering: pipeline foundations, build/artifact/delivery platforms, GitHub Actions end to end (workflow mechanics through enterprise governance), Argo Workflows, Tekton, Jenkins, release engineering, platform security, observability, reliability, enterprise governance, and MAANG interview preparation — cross-linking existing tech/kubernetes/platform-engineering-fundamentals/system-design notes instead of duplicating them.

5 — GitHub Actions: Artifacts

Covers uploading and downloading build artifacts, retention policy tuning, handling large files, and publishing test/report artifacts from a workflow run.

1 — Artifact Management

Covers artifact repositories, OCI registries, language package repositories, and versioning schemes as the foundation of an artifact platform.

3 — Software Supply Chain

Covers build provenance, SBOMs, artifact signing, and verification as the software-supply-chain controls layered on top of artifact storage — see kubernetes/08-supply-chain-security for the Sigstore/cosign/SLSA implementation detail.

4 — Dependency Management

Covers internal library management, third-party dependency handling, repository mirroring, and dependency governance policy at platform scale.
