Planning Continuous Deployment

Let’s commence our planning for Continuous Deployment by initially examining a comprehensive CD design. Following this, we will explore the Helm chart of our web application, which is slated for deployment in both staging and production environments. Subsequent steps involve readying the requisite elements on the AKS cluster, coupled with the installation and configuration of Argo CD to facilitate seamless deployment. The creation of applications within Argo CD and the integration with Jenkins will also be executed as part of this comprehensive planning and implementation process. Let’s dive in together and get things rolling!

High-level Continuous Deployment design

In the current architecture, Jenkins serves as the primary CD engine. The CD pipeline, orchestrated by Jenkins, automates the building and testing of the application. Upon successful build, Docker images are constructed and securely stored in Artifactory, a robust artifact...
