This week, I focused on Continuous Integration (CI) & Continuous Deployment (CD) with AWS VPC, following best practices for designing secure and scalable cloud infrastructure. I explored how to set up VPCs, automate deployments, and integrate AWS DevOps tools into real-world projects.
π Key Learnings and Hands-On Implementations:
AWS VPC β Best Practices & Implementation π
VPC Design & Components: Designed and implemented a secure Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) for scalable cloud applications.
VPC Setup: Created custom VPCs, configured subnets, route tables, Internet Gateways, and NAT Gateways for optimal networking.
Bastion Host for Secure Access π: Set up a bastion host to securely manage private EC2 instances.
Website Hosting in VPC π: Hosted a web application inside a private VPC while ensuring external access via Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) and Route 53.
VPC Peering: Established VPC peering for secure communication between multiple VPCs.
Terraform for VPC Automation π
Automated the entire VPC setup using Terraform, defining infrastructure as code with reusable modules.
AWS DevOps & CI/CD π
EC2 Logs & Monitoring: Configured CloudWatch Logs to track EC2 performance and security metrics.
S3 Policies: Implemented secure S3 bucket policies for controlled access.
Elastic Beanstalk Deployment: Set up RDS and deployed applications on Elastic Beanstalk for high availability.
Configured security groups, load balancers, and auto-scaling for optimized application performance.
AWS CodeSuite (CI/CD Pipelines):
CodeCommit: Managed source code repositories efficiently.
CodeBuild: Automated builds and testing for smooth deployments.
CodeDeploy: Implemented zero-downtime deployments for production-ready applications.
CodePipeline: Integrated CI/CD workflows to automate the full deployment cycle.
π― Projects & Implementations:
This week, I built end-to-end CI/CD pipelines using AWS services to manage infrastructure, deploy applications, and ensure high availability inside VPC-based architectures.

π‘ Key Takeaways:
VPC security and design are essential for scalable cloud
applications.
Automating infrastructure with Terraform & CI/CD improves efficiency and reliability.
AWS CodeSuite (CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and CodePipeline) streamlines DevOps workflows.
π Looking forward to next weekβs challenges as I continue my DevOps journey!
