Implementation of DevOps paradigm to deployment and provisioning of microservices

Abstract

Microservices architecture is widely used in the industry to deploy applications in terms of well-defined services along with DevOps paradigm to frequently release features. This paper describes how to incorporate some widely used DevOps tools for the deployment of micro-services. Amazon Web Services (AWS) Serverless architecture is used for the deployment of microservices using AWS Elastic Container Service. The process of deployment and provisioning of microservices using main features of AWS Elastic Container Service will be demonstrated and discussed in this paper with a simple example. We have applied and integrated DevOps tools/technologies to manage and deploy microservices. The example project is one of many projects’ students use to master DevOps skills and practices in the course “DevOps Principles and Practices” using current technologies.
