Continuous integration/Continuous delivery

As you make more services, you will notice that manual deployments of changes from source control and builds are taking up more time due to the need to figure out which image dependencies belong where, which image actually needs rebuilding (if you run a mono-repo), if the service changed at all, and many other ancillary issues. In order to simplify and streamline our deployment process, we will need to find a way to make this whole system fully automated so that the only thing needed to deploy a new version of services is a commit of a change to a branch of your code repository.
