Currently our production pipeline builds its own image, after the staging pipelines is done. Since we can experience intermittent issues during building, and we can't be sure that these issues would cause the build and deploy pipeline to fail (e.g. npm assets building ), building an image and deploying it to production with no checks is quite risky.

We could solve this by only building the image once before deploying it to staging. Each build still would have the same probability of experiencing intermittent issues, but we would always have the opportunity to detect these on staging before allowing production deploy.

Tasks

• Investigate if we can use the same images built for production for both staging and production, while have the correct variables
• Merge the staging and production pipeline into one
