📄️ Deploying an Application

This guide walks you through the two primary ways to deploy a containerized application using Infrastream.

📄️ Provisioning a Database

This guide provides the step-by-step process for provisioning a new, secure, and fully managed PostgreSQL database using Infrastream.

📄️ Creating a Bucket

This guide provides the step-by-step process for provisioning a new, secure Google Cloud Storage bucket using Infrastream.

📄️ Managing Secrets

This guide explains the secure and recommended process for managing secrets, such as API keys, database passwords, or other sensitive credentials, using Infrastream.

One of the most powerful features of the Infrastream platform is its ability to abstract the underlying compute infrastructure from your application. This guide provides a practical example of this concept by walking you through migrating an existing service from GKE to the serverless Cloud Run platform for cost optimization.

📄️ Custom Domains

This guide explains how to expose your application to the public internet using a clean, custom domain name (e.g., api.yourcompany.com).

📄️ Setting Up a PubSub Topic

This guide walks you through creating a managed Pub/Sub messaging topic and connecting it to your applications for event-driven communication.

📄️ Provisioning a Redis Cache

This guide walks you through provisioning a managed Redis instance for your project and connecting it to your applications for low-latency caching, session management, and real-time data access.

📄️ Setting Up a Repository & CI

This guide walks you through the complete process of creating a managed GitHub repository with fully automated CI pipelines, branch protection, and container publishing — all from declarative YAML.

📄️ Running Database Migrations

This guide explains how to configure your application to run a pre-deployment database migration job before the main service starts.

📄️ Deploying a Virtual Machine

This guide walks you through provisioning a managed virtual machine (or a stateful VM cluster) using Infrastream.

📄️ Setting Up Private Ingress

This guide walks you through setting up a PrivateIngress — an internal-only load-balanced entry point for cross-project service communication within your organization's Shared VPC.

📄️ Configuring Egress Rules

This guide explains how to configure outbound network access rules for your project, allowing applications to connect to specific external services.

📄️ Connecting Existing Resources

Setting Up a GitHub Repository & CI walks through creating a brand-new repository from scratch. Most teams adopting Infrastream aren't starting from zero — they already have a repo, a domain, and an auth story. This guide covers the five things that come up right after initial onboarding: connecting a repository you already have, wiring up its CI/CD, pointing a domain at it, adding authentication, and a few other configs teams commonly reach for next.

📄️ Controlling Costs

Most cloud bills are not expensive because the resources are big. They are expensive because the
