Overview of this book

The DevOps culture is growing at a massive rate, as many organizations are adopting it. However, implementing it for web applications is one of the biggest challenges experienced by many developers and admins, which this book will help you overcome using various tools, such as Chef, Docker, and Jenkins. On the basis of the functionality of these tools, the book is divided into three parts. The first part shows you how to use Jenkins 2.0 for Continuous Integration of a sample JEE application. The second part explains the Chef configuration management tool, and provides an overview of Docker containers, resource provisioning in cloud environments using Chef, and Configuration Management in a cloud environment. The third part explores Continuous Delivery and Continuous Deployment in AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Docker, all using Jenkins 2.0. This book combines the skills of both web application deployment and system configuration as each chapter contains one or more practical hands-on projects. You will be exposed to real-world project scenarios that are progressively presented from easy to complex solutions. We will teach you concepts such as hosting web applications, configuring a runtime environment, monitoring and hosting on various cloud platforms, and managing them. This book will show you how to essentially host and manage web applications along with Continuous Integration, Cloud Computing, Configuration Management, Continuous Monitoring, Continuous Delivery, and Deployment.

Preface

Executing the pipeline for application deployment automation


The pipeline feature in Jenkins 2.0 also provides features to orchestrate end-to-end automation for application deployment.

To give you an overview, here's a script that achieves checkout, continuous integration, cloud provisioning, and configuration management:

node('Master') { 
   // Mark the code checkout 'stage' 
   stage 'Checkout' 
 
   // Get code for PetClinic Application from a GitHub repository 
   git url: 'https://github.com/mitesh51/spring-petclinic.git' 
 
   // Get the maven tool. 
   // This ' Maven3.3.1' maven tool must be configuredin the global configuration.            
   def mvnHome = tool 'Maven3.3.1' 
 
   // Mark the code Compile'stage'.... 
   stage 'Compile' 
   // Run the maven build 
   sh "${mvnHome}/bin/mvn clean compile" 
 
   // Mark the code for Unit test execution and package 'stage'.... 
   stage 'Test&Package...
