Cloud Build

Cloud Build is Google’s managed CI/CD pipeline that automates the build, test, and deployment stages of your software lifecycle. It handles the infrastructure for running consistent, reliable automated builds, allowing teams to trigger workflows directly from their code repositories without managing build servers themselves.

This setup suits teams already embedded in the Google Cloud ecosystem who prioritize speed and automation over manual control. The main friction point is the lack of a free tier; while the starting rate is low at $0.003 per minute, every build incurs a cost, meaning even small projects or frequent testing cycles will generate immediate charges.
