DevOps_Game-Mastery

Overview

The GameFlow Mastery project integrates a comprehensive CI/CD pipeline for board game development. This pipeline ensures code quality, security and efficient deployment, leveraging various tools and technologies to deliver a seamless development and deployment experience for production environment projects. This project is a learning path of DevOPS CI/CD using the following tools:

Tech Stack

• Jenkins: Automates the build and deployment process.
• Kubernetes: Orchestrates and manages containerized applications
• Prometheus: Monitors the performance and health of applications
• Grafana: Visualizes monitoring data and creates dashboards
• Maven: Manages project builds and dependencies.
• SonarQube: Analyzes code quality and maintains code health
• Trivy: Scans for vulnerabilities in container images
• Nexus Repository: Stores and manages build artifacts
• Docker: Containerizes applications for consistent deployment

Architecture

Pipeline Flow

• Developer Setup: Developers write code and tests locally.
• Code Commit & Push: Code is pushed to the GitHub repository.
• Jenkins Trigger: Jenkins triggers the pipeline upon code push.
• Declarative Tool Install: Installs necessary tools and dependencies.
• Git Checkout: Checks out the latest code from GitHub.
• Compile: Compiles the code using Maven.
• Test: Runs unit tests to ensure code correctness.
• File System Scan: Checks for file system anomalies.
• SonarQube Analysis: Analyzes code quality and security issues.
• Quality Gate: Ensures code meets predefined quality standards.
• Build: Packages the application using Maven.
• Publish to Nexus: Publishes build artifacts to Nexus Repository.
• Build & Tag Docker Image: Builds and tags Docker image.
• Push Docker Image: Pushes Docker image to Docker repository.
• Deploy to Kubernetes: Deploys the application to Kubernetes cluster.
• Verify Deployment: Verifies the successful deployment of the application.
• System-Level Monitoring: Configures Prometheus for monitoring system performance and health.
• Website-Level Monitoring: Uses Prometheus black-box exporter for monitoring website availability and performance.
• Visualization: Uses Grafana to create dashboards for visualizing both system-level and website-level monitoring data.
• Declarative Post Actions: Performs post-deployment actions.
• Notification: Sends notification about the deployment status.
