About continuous deployment
Continuous deployment (CD) is the practice of using automation to publish and deploy software updates. As part of the typical CD process, the code is automatically built and tested before deployment.
Continuous deployment is often coupled with continuous integration. For more information about continuous integration, see Continuous integration.
About continuous deployment using GitHub Actions
You can set up a GitHub Actions workflow to deploy your software product. To verify that your product works as expected, your workflow can build the code in your repository and run your tests before deploying.
You can configure your CD workflow to run when an event occurs (for example, when new code is pushed to the default branch of your repository), on a set schedule, manually, or when an external event occurs using the repository dispatch webhook. For more information about when your workflow can run, see 触发工作流的事件.
GitHub Actions provides features that give you more control over deployments. For example, you can use environments to require approval for a job to proceed, restrict which branches can trigger a workflow, or limit access to secrets. You can use concurrency to limit your CD pipeline to a maximum of one in-progress deployment and one pending deployment. For more information about these features, see Deploying with GitHub Actions and 管理部署环境.
Workflow templates and third-party actions
GitHub 为 Azure Web 应用等多种流行服务提供部署工作流模板。 若要了解如何开始使用工作流模板，请参阅 使用工作流模板 或浏览部署工作流模板的完整列表。 还可以查看有关特定部署工作流的详细指南，例如 Deploying Node.js to Azure App Service。
许多服务提供商还提供针对 GitHub Marketplace 的操作，用于部署到他们的服务。 有关完整列表，请参阅 GitHub Marketplace。
Next steps
If your GitHub Actions workflows need to access resources from a cloud provider that supports OpenID Connect (OIDC), you can configure your workflows to authenticate directly to the cloud provider. This will let you stop storing these credentials as long-lived secrets and provide other security benefits. For more information, see OpenID Connect.
