This project applies various Cloud DevOps skills and knowledge in the development of gRPC microservices that run on Kubernetes(AWS EKS). These skills include:

• AWS
• Using Jenkins to implement Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment
• Building pipelines
• Working with CloudFormation to deploy clusters
• Building Kubernetes clusters
• Building Docker containers in pipelines

---

This project uses a CI/CD pipeline for microservices applications with rolling deployment

Environment Setup

• Create a new IAM profile for the deployment on AWS
• Create AWS infrastructure for the various CloudFormation scripts in the infra/ folder using the create-stack.sh script
• Install Jenkins and the necessary plugins (BlueOcean, pipeline-aws). Install application-specific plugins(eksctl, kubectl, docker, awscli) in the running EC2 Instance
• Setup AWS and docker hub credentials in Jenkins
• Fork this repo and connect the forked repo in Jenkins while creating a Jenkins pipeline with BlueOcean
