Deploying Applications

Lens AppIQ is an Application Management service. The goal is to completely abstract the underlying infrastructure (both Cloud and Kubernetes infrastructure) while allowing developers to focus on application management and operations on controls and governance.

You can deploy applications through the Lens AppIQ web UI or CLI

Source code deployment

Lens AppIQ supports deploying applications from source code using Cloud Native Buildpacks to deploy an application from the source code. You can specify the specific builder (default heroku/buildpacks:20) with deploy --builder flag. You can also provide one or more build packs using --build-packs flag.

You can see list of supported builders by running lapps builder list command.

Docker Image Deployment

Users can deploy existing Docker images through Lens AppIQ using both CLI and webUI.
