GitHub Actions, GitHub’s pipeline runner feature, can accelerate platform engineering through deployment-based actions. In this talk, you’ll learn how GitHub Actions can provide an easy interface that gives developers lots of deployment controls with no need to directly manage infrastructure as code. You’ll also discover how to get started yourself.
