DevOps enables organizations to deliver applications to their users with agility. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines are an important component of DevOps. They automate the processes for developing and deploying applications automatically. 

In this course, you will take a project-based approach to learning about some of the most popular CI/CD pipelines. You will start by learning how to create a PHP application using the Symfony framework, and add some features to the skeletal code. Then, you’ll learn to deploy it to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Next, you will learn to automate the build and deployment steps using GitHub Actions, Bitbucket, GitLab, and AWS CI/CD pipelines.

At the end of the course, you will have knowledge of working with some of the most popular CI/CD pipelines. You’ll know the best practices of working with authentication secrets for each of these pipelines and be able to deploy any web application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk using any of these CI/CD pipelines.

Mastering Web Application Deployment Using CI/CD Pipelines



AWS Elastic Beanstalk is a fully managed service offered by AWS for deploying and scaling web applications. When using EB, we need to think about the code we are deploying. EB handles most of the infrastructure for us. 



Overall, EB provides a convenient and efficient way to deploy and manage web applications on AWS, reducing the time and effort required for manual setup and maintenance. EB also provides various automatic tools like autoscaling and rolling deploys; however, we won't cover them in this course.

See the image below of the AWS Cloud architecture diagram, which visually describes what we will be building in the cloud:

# Create an AWS account

First, we must set up an AWS account to launch EB applications. Follow the instructions given below if you don't have an AWS account:

- Go to the [AWS website](https://aws.amazon.com/).
- Click the "Create a new AWS Account" button.
- Fill in your personal information, including your name, email address, and password.
- Choose a support plan that suits your needs. Basic is fine for now.
- Enter your billing information and select a payment method.
- Review and accept the AWS customer agreement and AWS service terms.
- Verify your email address by clicking the link sent to your email.
- Log in to the AWS Management Console.

Note that you might need to provide additional information, such as credit card and phone number, for verification purposes and to avoid fraud. Check out the [AWS guide](https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/create-and-activate-aws-account/) for more information.
