• Basic knowledge of shell commands.

Intro

Join WeCloudData to complete a DevOps mini project! In this 3-part workshop series you will learn:

• How to work with cloud infrastructures like AWS VPC and EC2 instances with Terraform.
• How to install and config Git, Python and Docker in the two EC2 instances with Ansible.
• How to create a CI/CD pipeline that deploys your application automatically to the EC2 instances when there’s a new push/merge in the main branch of your Github.

We will spend the three workshops together to complete this mini project. In each workshop we are going to introduce a tool, do a live demo of how it works and show what can be done with it.

DevOps Mini-Project (Part 1): IaC with Terraform

Terraform is developed by a company called HashiCorp in order to manage infrastructures.

• Unify the view of resources using infrastructure as code.
• Support the modern data center(Iaas, Paas, SaaS).
• Expose a way for individuals and teams to safely and predictably change infrastructure.
• Provide a workflow that is technology agnostic.
• Manage anything with an API.

The code can be found in the feature/Terraform branch

DevOps Mini-Project (Part 2): Introduction to Ansible

Ansible is powerful IT administration tool which is easy to learn and use. It can:

• Provision resources.
• Manage large amount of VM to a cluster.
• Delivery software to multiple node at same time.
• Run management script on multiple target systems.

The code can be found in the feature/Ansible branch

DevOps Mini-Project (Part 3): CI/CD with Github Action

CI/CD stands for continuous integration and continuous delivery/deployment and it usually consists of 4 stages: code merge, test, build and deployment.

Github Action is a tool to automate the CI/CD workflows of developers.

• A free tool.
• serverless.
• easy to setup and manage.
