Techniques and architectures for providing continuous integration (CI) and/or continuous delivery (CD) in a data lake environment

Mechanisms and techniques for providing continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) for data lake applications are disclosed. Assembly of code for an app is managed with a CI platform to create a container within a shared environment within which the app runs. The container is isolated from other containers and bundles software, libraries and configuration files and can communicate with other containers through defined channels. The shared environment provides a platform for running the app. The app writes to one or more tables maintained in the shared environment. Assembly of subsequent versions of code for the app is managed by the CI platform. Deployment of the assembled subsequent version of the code to the container is managed by the CI platform. Integration tests are run on the deployed subsequent version of the code with the CI platform. The subsequent version of the code replaces the app in the shared environment when integration testing is complete.
