# GitLab CI services examples
|
|
|
|
The [`services`](../docker/using_docker_images.md#what-is-a-service)
|
|
keyword defines a Docker image that runs during a `job` linked to the
|
|
Docker image that the image keyword defines. This allows you to access
|
|
the service image during build time.
|
|
|
|
The service image can run any application, but the most common use
|
|
case is to run a database container, for example:
|
|
|
|
- [Using MySQL](mysql.md)
|
|
- [Using PostgreSQL](postgres.md)
|
|
- [Using Redis](redis.md)
