DevOps Project: GoLang Server Deployment with CI/CD Pipeline
This project displays my DevOps knowledge by deploying a GoLang server with an automated CI/CD pipeline, realized through GitHub Actions and AWS services. The server code is a simple web application that listens on port 8080 and responds with "Hello, world!" when accessed.
Upon each push to any branch except the main, the first GitHub workflow is triggered, performing code linting using golangci-lint and running tests across Ubuntu, macOS, and Windows platforms with Go versions 1.15.x, 1.16.x, and 1.17.x.
When a pull request is merged into the main branch, the second GitHub workflow initiates. This workflow builds a Docker image from the Dockerfile, pushes it to DockerHub, deploys the new version to Elastic Beanstalk, and conducts a smoke test to ensure the server's successful deployment.
- 🏗️ This project embodies a typical DevOps workflow, demonstrating skills in automation, cloud services, version control, and deployment best practices.
- 🧪 The use of GitHub Actions for testing and Elastic Beanstalk for deployment illustrates an effective CI/CD pipeline.
- 🚀 Key improvements like automated code review, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and performance testing elevate code quality, reproducible infrastructure, and application performance.
