Bring Your Own Manifest File (BYOM)#
"Bring your own manifest file" (BYOM) is an approach to deploying applications and services that involves providing a manifest file with all the configuration details needed for deployment. The manifest file contains all the required settings, parameters, and dependencies that the application or service needs to run.
The BYOM approach allows developers and operators to have full control over the deployment process, since they can specify all the required configuration details in the manifest file.
With BuildPiper, you can easily configure the CD details by uploading your custom manifest file. If you already have Manifest file or a Helm Chart and Values file, you can provide the file or the Git URL and File/Folder path. The product will use these manifest details to streamline the deployment process.
