Lab #10.1

Lab 10.1 – Deployment a WebApp with Jenkins to EC2 Part II.

Name: _______________________ Student No.: _________________

Introduction: Welcome to this hands-on lab session on deploying a web application using Jenkins on
Amazon EC2! In today's dynamic and ever-evolving technological landscape, automating the
deployment process is crucial for achieving efficiency and reliability in software development. In this
lab, we will walk through the process of setting up a continuous integration and continuous deployment
(CI/CD) pipeline using Jenkins, a powerful automation tool. Our focus will be on deploying a web
application on Amazon EC2, a scalable and reliable cloud computing platform. Jenkins, an open-source
automation server, will play a pivotal role in automating the building, testing, and deployment phases of
our application. By the end of this lab, you will have gained practical experience in configuring Jenkins
pipelines, integrating it with version control systems, and orchestrating the deployment of a web
application on an EC2 instance.

Architecture

This is the basic structure of AWS EC2, where EC2 stands for Elastic Compute Cloud. EC2 allow users
to use virtual machines of different configurations as per their requirement. It allows various
configuration options, mapping of individual server, various pricing options, etc. We will discuss these
in detail in AWS Products section. Following is the diagrammatic representation of the architecture.

The following diagram illustrates this reference architecture.
