Chapter 12: Continuous Deployment with CircleCI and AWS
In the last two chapters, we prepared our application through tests with Mocha. We have built an application that is ready for the production environment.
We will now generate a production build that's ready for deployment. We've arrived at the point where we can set up Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) and implement the ability to build and deploy Docker images through a continuous deployment workflow.
The process of continuous deployment will help to keep changes small for the production environment. Keeping changes in your application continuous and small will make issues trackable and fixable, whereas releasing a set of multiple features at once will leave the location for bugs open for investigation as multiple things will have changed with just one release.
This chapter covers the following topics:
- Production-ready bundling
- What is Docker?
- Configuring Docker
- Setting up AWS...
