DevOps
Considerations
Scripts
- Use scripts to automate the deployment process, such as shell scripts or Python scripts.
Configuration management tools
- Use tools such as Ansible, Chef, or Puppet to automate the provisioning and configuration of infrastructure and applications.
Containerization
- Use containerization technology such as Docker to package applications and dependencies, making them easier to deploy and manage.
Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) tools
- Use CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, Travis CI, or CircleCI to automate the building, testing, and deployment of code.
Infrastructure as Code
- Use tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation to provision and manage infrastructure as code.
Cloud deployment
- Utilize cloud-based deployment solutions like AWS CodeDeploy, Azure DevOps, or Google Cloud Deployment Manager.
Virtualization
- Use virtualization technology such as virtual machines or serverless functions to deploy and manage applications.
GitOps
- Use GitOps to manage and deploy infrastructure and applications through a Git repository.
A/B Testing and Canary deployments
- Use A/B testing and Canary deployments to safely test new versions of software before deploying them to the entire system.
Rolling Deployments
- Use rolling deployments to deploy updates to a small subset of servers at a time, reducing the risk of downtime.
