Importance of DevOps Engineers in Application Development.
11:43
DevOps engineers facilitate the quick release of applications to customers by working closely with developers and ensuring efficient delivery processes.
Developers write code in different languages and store it in version control systems like Git for management and use by end customers.
Customer satisfaction is crucial for successful applications, highlighting the significance of DevOps engineers in ensuring speed and quality in software development.
High demand and pay in the market for DevOps engineers reflect their essential role in the software development lifecycle.
The importance of packaging code in an executable format before deployment to production servers is emphasized.
16:04
Google Chrome's code is compiled into an .exe file for installation on users' systems, which launches the browser when the application is run.
Executable files are stored in specific locations on the system and cannot be opened or modified directly.
Deploying code in an executable format ensures accessibility and functionality for end users.
Importance of software testing before deployment to production servers.
20:11
Quality assurance testing is crucial to ensure the application functions correctly.
Testing includes functionality, feature, performance, stress, regression, security, and UI testing.
A dedicated testing team is responsible for testing the product in different environments.
The goal is to ensure the software meets the requirements for end customers.
Overview of software testing environments.
23:30
Deployment of software packages into different environments such as testing, performance testing, staging, and user acceptance testing for validation.
Developers write code and unit test cases to ensure basic functionality and sanity of the software.
If the sanity test fails, developers are notified to address the issues.
Continuous feedback based on the sanity results is provided to improve software quality.
Summary of Code Deployment Process
26:44
Code deployment involves putting code into version control, packaging it, and deploying it to various environments.
Automation plays a crucial role in speeding up the deployment process.
Continuous deployment ensures code is continuously moved from development to production.
Emphasis is placed on automation in software development for efficient deployment.
The importance of automation in deployment processes.
28:36
Emphasis on continuous deployment and continuous delivery through automation techniques.
Covers stages of development, testing, and deployment, including unit tests and basic functionality checks.
Explanation of continuous integration and continuous deployment in software development.
Highlighting the significance of automation for faster and efficient deployment processes.
Overview of Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) processes.
32:54
Emphasis on automation and the use of tools like Git for source code management.
Developers push code to versioning tools like Git and use various languages for coding.
Code is retrieved from versioning tools and built using tools like Maven or MS Build.
Docker is mentioned as a tool for shipping applications and serving as a build and packaging tool.
The importance of infrastructure and servers in deploying software packages.
36:04
Infrastructure automation and creation of virtual servers are key components in the process.
Explanation of infrastructure provisioning and tools like Terraform for automation.
Different cloud platforms like AWS and Azure offer templates such as CloudFormation and ARM templates for infrastructure provisioning.
Highlighting the importance of choosing the right tools like bicep for Azure DevOps for efficient infrastructure management.
Overview of cloud platform project creation using Terraform, application deployment with Ansible or Chef, and Docker container technology with Kubernetes orchestration.
41:58
Terraform is used for creating projects on AWS, GCP, and Azure.
Ansible or Chef are utilized for deploying applications.
Docker technology is important for containerization.
Kubernetes serves as an orchestration system for managing containers.
Importance of Kubernetes for orchestration in deploying applications across different environments.
43:16
Kubernetes is popular and versatile, working with tools like Terraform and Ansible.
It is crucial to maintain separate Kubernetes clusters for various environments, including production.
Achieving CI/CD pipelining is essential with tools like Jenkins and Azure DevOps.
Demand for Azure DevOps is increasing due to a shortage of skilled candidates, with other tools like Travis CI, Circle CI, and Bamboo also mentioned.
Jenkins is a popular open-source tool for CI/CD, while cloud platforms like AWS offer paid services.
47:16
Industry utilizes monitoring tools such as ELK (Elastic Stack), Prometheus, Grafana, DataDog, Nagios, Zabbix, and Splunk.
Monitoring tools are essential for monitoring server and application health.
