Great write-up! I've been looking for a simple guide on CD systems.

I mainly used GitLab and Docker, with Kustomize for applying appropriate configuration files during deployment.

Can you elaborate on the infrastructure used in the project? I'm particularly interested in cost analysis and scaling.

The infra was built using Kubernetes with AWS as the cloud provider, and we made sure to use spot instances for cost efficiency. Scaling was done through horizontal pod autoscaling based on measured resource utilization.
