- 40. AWS CodeDeploy - Components Application: What you are deploying – A container for revisions Revision: A given version of your application Instance: Target instance for deployment Deployment Groups: Group of instances – A construct for environment segregation (Dev/QA/Prod, Blue/Green, A/B, etc.) AppSpec File: Describes actions that needs to be taken pre- or post-deployment Deployment: The action of deploying a new revision onto instances
- 41. AWS CodeDeploy - Application • The Application is the highest level container • Revisions will be attached to the Application
- 42. AWS CodeDeploy - Revisions Revisions are versions of your application They can be uploaded to: • Amazon S3 • GitHub Revisions are deployed onto Deployment Groups, which are groups of instance
- 43. AWS CodeDeploy – Instance Setup • Verify your instance has an IAM instance profile and verify the permissions allows it to participate in AWS CodeDeploy deployments • Tag the instance - or make sure it’s in an Auto Scaling Group • Install the agent (can be automated) • Verify the agent is running
- 44. AWS CodeDeploy – Setup Deployment Groups Group instances by: • Auto Scaling Groups • EC2 Tags • On-Premise tags Deploy to Deployment Groups independently from each other Could be used for “DevOps” constructs: • Dev/QA/Prod/etc. • Blue/Green • A/B Testing • Etc.

- 52. Code* Tips and Tricks • All Code* products can(and should) be provisioned and managed with AWS CloudFormation! • You could literally store the CloudFormation templates that provision your Code* resources in CodeCommit and update them via CodePipeline (It’s like Code* Inception!) • Deep integration with IAM. You can assign permissions on who can commit code, approve manual approvals, deploy to certain deployment groups and more! • Integrate with AWS Lambda to do almost anything: • CodeCommit has Repository Triggers • CodeDeploy has Event Notifications • CodePipeline has native Lambda invoke AWS CodePipeline AWS CodeCommit AWS CodeBuildAWS CodeDeploy

- I want to take a moment to talk about different release processes. Each team’s release process takes a different shape to accommodate the needs of each team. Nearly all release processes can be simplified down to four stages – source, build, test and production. Each phase of the process provides increase confidence that the code being made available to customers will work in the way that was intended. During the source phase, developers check changes into a source code repository. Many teams require peer feedback on code changes before shipping code into production. Some teams use code reviews to provide peer feedback on the quality of code change. Others use pair programming as a way to provide real time peer feedback. During the Build phase an application’s source code is built and the quality of the code is tested on the build machine. The most common type of quality check are automated tests that do not require a server in order to execute and can be initiated from a test harness. Some teams extend their quality tests to include code metrics and style checks. There is an opportunity for automation any time a human is needed to make a decision on the code. The goal of the test phase is to perform tests that cannot be done on during the build phase and require the software to be deployed to a production like stages. Often these tests include testing integration with other live systems, load testing, UI testing and penetration testing. At Amazon we have many different pre-production stages we deploy to. A common pattern is for engineers to deploy builds to a personal development stage where an engineer can poke and prod their software running in a mini prod like stage to check that their automated tests are working correctly. Teams deploy to pre-production stages where their application interacts with other systems to ensure that the newly changed software work in an integrated environment. Finally code gets deployed to production. Different teams have different deployment strategies though we all share a goal of reducing risk when deploying new changes and minimizing the impact if a bad change does get out to production. Each of these steps can be automated without the entire release process being automated. There are several levels of release automation that I’ll step through.
- Continuous Integration Continuous Integration is the practice of checking in your code to the continuously and verifying each change with an automated build and test process. Over the past 10 years Continuous Integration has gained popularity in the software community. In the past developers were working in isolation for an extended period of time and only attempting to merge their changes into the mainline of their code once their feature was completed. Batching up changes to merge back into the mainline made not only merging the business logic hard, but it also made merging the test logic difficult. Continuous Integration practices have made teams more productive and allowed them to develop new features faster. Continuous Integration requires teams to write automated tests which, as we learned, improve the quality of the software being released and reduce the time it takes to validate that the new version of the software is good. There are different definitions of Continuous Integration, but the one we hear from our customers is that CI stops at the build stage, so I’m going to use that definition. Continuous Delivery Continuous Delivery extends Continuous Integration to include testing out to production-like stages and running verification testing against those deployments. Continuous Delivery may extend all the way to a production deployment, but they have some form of manual intervention between a code check-in and when that code is available for customers to use. Continuous Delivery is a big step forward over Continuous Integration allowing teams to be gain a greater level of certainty that their software will work in production. Continuous Deployment Continuous Deployment extends continuous delivery and is the automated release of software to customers from check in through to production without human intervention. Many of the teams at Amazon have reached a state of continuous deployment. Continuous Deployment reduces the time for your customers to get value from the code your team has just written, with the team getting faster feedback on the changes you’ve made. This fast customer feedback loop allow you to iterate quickly, allowing you to deliver more valuable software to your customers, quicker.

- Let’s take a look at an example Pipeline. I’ve created a simple 3 stage Pipeline to talk though my example. Source actions are special actions. They continuously poll the source providers, such as GitHub and S3, in order to detect changes. Once a change is detected, the new pipeline run is created and the new pipeline begins its run. The source actions retrieve a copy of the source information and place it into a customer owned S3 bucket. Once the source action is completed, the Source stage is marked as successful and we transition to the Build stage. In the Build Stage we have one action, Jenkins. Jenkins was integrated into CodePipeline as a CustomAction and has the same lifecycle as all custom actions. Talk through interaction Once the build action is completed, the Build stage is marked as successful and we transition to the Deploy stage The Deploy stage contains one action, an AWS Elastic Beanstalk deployment action. The Beanstalk action retrieves the build artifact from the customer’s S3 bucket and deploys it to the Elastic Beanstalk web container.

- We have partnered with popular source, build, test and deployment systems to provide out-of-the-box integrations. Jenkins, CloudBees and Solano offer CI services for build stages BlazeMeter, Apica, HP StormRunner and Runscope are load testing partners. GhostInspector is a User Interface Testing partner GitHub is a source code partner Xebia Labs is a deployment partner.
