In today's dynamic IT landscape, efficiency and agility are paramount. Manual application deployments can be time-consuming, prone to errors, and hinder innovation.
This case study explores how Musewerx partnered with a US-based IT company to implement a streamlined approach using a Jenkins CI/CD pipeline on an AWS EC2 instance and EKS cluster.
Project Description:
The client aimed to automate the deployment process for their application, reducing manual intervention and ensuring consistent, reliable deployments. The project timeline was ambitious, targeting completion within two months.
Challenges:
Manual Deployments:
The existing deployment process was manual, leading to potential inconsistencies and delays.
Limited Visibility:
Tracking deployment progress and identifying potential errors was challenging.
Scalability Concerns:
The manual approach hindered the ability to scale deployments effectively as application complexity grew.
Solution:
Musewerx implemented a CI/CD pipeline using Jenkins on an AWS EC2 instance:
EC2 Instance Setup:
A secure EC2 instance was provisioned on AWS to host the Jenkins server.
Jenkins Installation:
Jenkins was installed and configured on the EC2 instance.
Plugin Installation:
Necessary plugins for GitHub integration, AWS access, and pipeline creation were installed within Jenkins.
AWS Credentials Configuration:
AWS access keys and secret access keys were securely stored within Jenkins for interaction with EKS.
Jenkins Pipeline Creation:
A Jenkinsfile defining the automated build, testing, and deployment stages was created.
GitHub Integration:
The Jenkins pipeline was linked to the client's GitHub repository for automated execution upon code updates.
Results:
The two-month project led to significant improvements:
- Automated Deployments: The Jenkins pipeline automates the entire deployment process, reducing manual workloads and human error.
- Enhanced Visibility: Real-time logs and pipeline visualization provide clear visibility into deployment status and potential issues.
- Increased Scalability: The automated approach facilitates scaling deployments effortlessly to accommodate future growth.
Conclusion:
This project exemplifies the benefits of implementing a CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins and AWS EKS. By automating application deployments, the client achieved increased efficiency, reduced errors, and enhanced agility, empowering them to focus on core development activities.
