In this post, we’ll be talking about creating cross-account access for DynamoDB. DynamoDB is a NoSQL Database in the cloud provided by Amazon Web Services. Whether you’re creating a production deployment pipeline that leverages a shared Keystore or deploying an application in multiple accounts with shared resources, you may find yourself wondering how to provide Read more…
In this episode, Paul Duvall and Brian Jakovich from Stelligent cover recent DevOps in AWS news and do a deep dive into automating the integration of AWS CodeCommit and CodePipeline using CloudFormation. Finally, they bring you into a Stelligent roundtable to discuss recent DevOps in AWS engagements with customers. About DevOps in AWS Radio On Read more…
In this second and last part of this two-part series, I will demonstrate how to create a deployment pipeline in AWS CodePipeline to deploy changes to ECS images. In doing this, you’ll see not only how you can automate the creation of the infrastructure but also automating the deployment of the application and its infrastructure via Docker containers. This way you can commit infrastructure, application and deployment changes as code to your version-control repository and have these changes automatically deployed to production or production-like environments. Read more…
In this two-part series, you’ll learn how to provision, configure, and orchestrate the EC2 Container Service (ECS) applications into a deployment pipeline that’s capable of deploying new infrastructure and code changes when developers commit changes to a version-control repository so that team members can release new changes to users whenever they choose to do so: Continuous Delivery. Read more…
In Building Continuous Deployment on AWS with AWS CodePipeline, Jenkins and AWS Elastic Beanstalk, AWS describes how to manually configure CodePipeline to deploy an Elastic Beanstalk application. In this post, after describing how to create and connect to a new CodeCommit repository, I’ll explain how to fully automate the provisioning of all of the AWS resources Read more…
To create a new CodeCommit version-control repository, go to your AWS console and select CodeCommit under Developer Tools. Click the Create new repository button, enter a unique repository name and a description and click Create repository. Next, you will connect to the repository. Connect to the CodeCommit Repository There are a couple of ways to connect Read more…
Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently announced the integration of AWS CodeCommit with AWS CodePipeline. This means you can now use CodeCommit as a version-control repository as part of your pipelines! AWS describes how to manually configure this integration at Simple Pipeline Walkthrough (AWS CodeCommit Repository). One of the biggest benefits of using CodeCommit is its seamless Read more…
If you plan to write, or have already written, Ruby code that leverages Amazon Web Services, you should consider using AWS Stubs. The ability to stub service responses allows you to develop robust code more quickly and enables you to test your code without incurring any cost. Amazon’s SDK engineers knew that as well, and have Read more…
When creating pipelines in AWS CodePipeline, you may want to make these pipelines available to other AWS accounts. When doing this, you’ll likely want to make these pipelines read only. A typical use case is that you want consistency for certain types of pipelines across an enterprise by providing a view of these pipelines to other Read more…
If your application tech stack doesn’t need servers, why should your continuous delivery pipeline? Serverless applications deserve serverless delivery! The software development discipline of continuous delivery has had a tremendous impact on decreasing the cost and risk of delivering changes while simultaneously increasing code quality by ensuring that software systems are always in a releasable Read more…
