Building my DevOps Portfolio 🚀

Project 7: Continuous Delivery using Jenkins & tools.

One of the benefits of working at EY is Udemy for Business. I enrolled in the DevOps Projects | 20 Real-Time DevOps Projects course to enhance my DevOps portfolio and I’m sharing this process for educational purposes.

Scenario

✅ Agile Software Development Life Cycle.
✅ Developers make regular code changes.
✅ These commits need to be Build & Tested.
✅ Usually Build & Release Team will do this job or developers with responsibility to merge and integrate code

Problem

❌ In Agile SDLC, there will be frequent code change. ❌ Not so frequently code will be tested. ❌ Developers need to rework to fix bugs and errors. ❌ Manual Build and release process. ❌ Inter team dependencies.

Solution: Continuous Delivery

♾️ Build and test for every commit.
♾️ Automated process.
♾️ Notify for every build status.
♾️ Fix code if bugs or error found instantly rather rather than waiting.

Benefits CI Pipeline

✅ Short Mean time to recovery (MTTR).
✅ Agile.
✅ No human intervention.
✅ Fault isolation.
