End-to-end CI/CD pipeline for micro-services using Jenkins, Docker, Helm & Kubernetes.
CI/CD Pipeline for a Microservices App (Jenkins + Docker + Kubernetes)
| Situation | You are part of a team building a microservices-based web application that needs frequent updates and consistent deployments across environments.
| Task | Automate the build, test, and deployment process across dev, staging, and production clusters.
| Action | Set up a Jenkins pipeline that integrates GitHub for source control, Docker for containerisation, and Kubernetes (EKS) for deployment. Used Helm for chart management and configured Slack notifications for pipeline status. Included SonarQube for static code analysis.
| Result | Reduced deployment time from 1 hour to under 10 minutes. Increased deployment frequency to 5x a week. Improved collaboration between developers and operations through shared pipeline visibility.
