Habitat Builder: Cloud Native Application Automation - Elliott Davis & Fletcher Nichol, Chef.io
summary
Habitat Builder is an open-source Apache v2 project that combines a distributed build system with a package repository and promotes artifacts into named channels; it connects to GitHub to auto-rebuild, and exports packages to Docker, Kubernetes and Helm. The demo shows an edit → Builder auto-build → promote to stable → operator + updater trigger a Kubernetes rolling update, and a config change applied live (or restarted when the service requires it). Builder can host artifacts and is working toward full on-prem build support.
