Overview of this book

<p>Continuous Delivery is a process whereby code changes are automatically built, tested, and prepared for release to production. This video course starts by showing you how to ship logs to a central location for easier viewing and configure monitoring services to check the health of your containers and services with AWS, Azure, and Google. You will begin by designing toolsets and components which will make up the Continuous Deployment pipeline of the future<br />You will learn about logging services such as AWS, Google, and Azure. You will also learn why centralized logging is important and how container logging differs from logging from physical servers. You will then master monitoring containers and see some examples involving monitoring dashboards that will be installed in this course.</p> <p>Toward the end of the course, you will explore how monitoring and logging overlap, and how metrics can be retrieved from log files.</p> <p>All the code and supporting files for this course are available on GitHub at&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Creating-Continuous-Deployment-Pipeline-for-Cloud-Platforms" target="_blank">https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Creating-Continuous-Deployment-Pipeline-for-Cloud-Platforms</a></p> <h1>Style and Approach</h1> <p>This step-by-step guide will walk you through the creation of a Continuous Delivery pipeline for deploying, logging and monitoring containers. You will then master monitoring containers and see some examples of monitoring dashboards that will be installed in this course. Logging services of such as AWS, Azure, and Google are demonstrated.</p>

What is Infrastructure as Code and Why Is It Important?
The aim of the video is to show the viewer what is Infrastructure as Code and where it comes from, why Infrastructure as Code is important (benefits vs lack thereof), and a quick overview of the various tools adopting Infrastructure as Code (Ansible, Hashicorp Packer, Docker, Terraform). - Describe what Infrastructure as Code is - Describe why Infrastructure as Code is important - Give a quick overview of the various tools which follow the Infrastructure as Code model
