Build high-performance CI/CD pipelines that are powered by AWS and the most cutting-edge tools and techniques
Key Features
Master the full AWS developer toolchain for building high-performance, resilient, and powerful CI/CD pipelines
Get to grips with Chaos engineering, DevSecOps, and AIOps as applied to CI/CD
Employ the latest tools and techniques to build a CI/CD pipeline for application and infrastructure
Book Description
Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) has never been simple, but these days the landscape is more bewildering than ever; its terrain riddled with blind alleys and pitfalls that seem almost designed to trap the less-experienced developer. If you're determined enough to keep your balance on the cutting edge, this book will help you navigate the landscape with ease.
This book will guide you through the most modern ways of building CI/CD pipelines with AWS, taking you step-by-step from the basics right through to the most advanced topics in this domain.
The book starts by covering the basics of CI/CD with AWS. Once you're well-versed with tools such as AWS Codestar, Proton, CodeGuru, App Mesh, SecurityHub, and CloudFormation, you'll focus on chaos engineering, the latest trend in testing the fault tolerance of your system. Next, you'll explore the advanced concepts of AIOps and DevSecOps, two highly sought-after skill sets for securing and optimizing your CI/CD systems. All along, you'll cover the full range of AWS CI/CD features, gaining real-world expertise.
By the end of this AWS book, you'll have the confidence you need to create resilient, secure, and performant CI/CD pipelines using the best techniques and technologies that AWS has to offer.

Review
"This book covers three aspects of IT operations. It first shows you how to use AWS developer tools to build a cloud-native end-to-end DevOps pipeline. Following the step-by-step method, anyone who is new to DevOps and has some basic knowledge of the cloud will be able to easily master the creation of a production-grade CI/CD pipeline. This book uses Guard and HashiCorp Sentinel to cover the security aspects of Infrastructure as Code and Policy as Code. Following the creation of a CI/CD pipeline, Infrastructure, and Policy as Code, it demonstrates how to use AWS Proton to spin up a CI/CD pipeline and infrastructure at scale. This is a fantastic and relatively new offering from AWS. The notion of chaos engineering is then discussed in detail in one of the book's chapters, with several examples on different layers of systems to test their resiliency using AWS native service Fault Injection Simulator. The finest aspect of this book is how well it covers the entire security toolchain of the DevSecOps pipeline, including detailed instructions on how to build and integrate it with the chaos engineering service. The final and most essential component of this book provided me with an understanding of AIOps. Working as the Director of IT Operations and Business, it's critical for me to understand why any new technology is being introduced. And this book goes into great detail about it using AWS DevOps Guru with various examples on the Kubernetes cluster. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and learned a lot about the new AWS services as well as the concepts of DevSecOps, chaos engineering, and AIOps. It's definitely worth reading for anyone who is running IT operation or SDLC management."
