Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment using AWS CodePipeline Example

Architecture

Problem Statement

Create a CI/CD pipeline for a simple web application using AWS CodePipeline, AWS CodeBuild, and AWS Elastic Beanstalk. The pipeline should automatically build, test, and deploy the application to Elastic Beanstalk whenever there is a change to the code in the repository.

Requirements

• The web application must be hosted on Elastic Beanstalk.
• The CI/CD pipeline must be defined using AWS CodePipeline.
• The pipeline must build the application using AWS CodeBuild.
• The pipeline must deploy the application to Elastic Beanstalk using the CodePipeline to Elastic Beanstalk integration.
• The pipeline must be triggered automatically whenever there is a change to the code in the repository.
• Add any one of Unit or Integration tests to the application and configure the pipeline to run the tests before deploying the application.
