Client Background
Science & Technology Corporation (STC) is a leader in scientific and technological solutions, supporting a variety of high-impact projects. With a robust DevOps team, STC sought to streamline their development processes and improve their deployment efficiency through a comprehensive CI/CD setup.
Challenges
STC faced challenges in managing their development, staging, and production environments efficiently. The lack of automated deployment processes led to inconsistencies and delays, hindering their ability to quickly and reliably deliver updates and new features.
Solutions
Our team implemented a robust CI/CD pipeline to automate the deployment process, ensuring seamless transitions between development, staging, and production environments. The solution involved setting up Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines using AWS EKS. Deployments were triggered based on the branch type:
Dev Branch: Deployments to the development environment.
Feature Branch: Deployments to the staging environment.
Tags: Deployments to the production environment.
Implementation
We established a structured CI/CD pipeline on Gitlab, and deployed to AWS EKS, which included:
Configuring the development, staging, and production environments on Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Automating deployments based on branch types to ensure smooth transitions and consistency.
Implementing a tagging system to manage production releases effectively.
Ensuring high availability and scalability through AWS EKS.
Results
The CI/CD pipeline implementation significantly improved STC's deployment efficiency and reliability. Key outcomes included:
Enhanced Efficiency: Streamlined deployment processes reduced manual intervention and deployment times.
Consistency: Automated deployments ensured uniformity across all environments.
Scalability: The AWS EKS setup provided a scalable and resilient infrastructure to support future growth and demands.
Lessons Learned
The project highlighted the importance of automation in modern DevOps practices, demonstrating how structured CI/CD pipelines can significantly enhance operational efficiency. Additionally, the flexibility and scalability of AWS EKS proved crucial in managing complex deployment workflows.
