## Introduction

This document provides a comprehensive guide for deploying an ExpressJS application using a CI/CD pipeline on AWS. The pipeline utilizes GitHub Actions for code integration, AWS CodeCommit for source control, AWS CodeBuild for build automation, and AWS Elastic Beanstalk for application deployment.

## Prerequisites

1. *AWS Account:* Ensure you have an active AWS account.

2. *GitHub Repository:* Have your ExpressJS project in a GitHub repository.

3. *AWS CLI:* Install and configure the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI).

## Setting Up GitHub Actions

1. *Create GitHub Repository:*

   - Initialize a new repository on GitHub for your project.

   

2. *Configure GitHub Actions:*

   - Navigate to the "Actions" tab in your GitHub repository.

   - Select a workflow template or create a new one.

   

3. *Write Workflows:*

   - Create a .github/workflows/main.yml file in your repository with the following content

## Configuring AWS IAM

1. *Create IAM User:*

   - Go to the IAM section in the AWS Management Console.

   - Create a new IAM user with programmatic access.

   

2. *Attach Policies:*

   - Attach the necessary policies for CodeCommit, CodeBuild, and Elastic Beanstalk to the IAM user.

   

3. *Store Credentials Securely:*

   - Save the access key ID and secret access key for the IAM user securely.

## Setting Up AWS CodeCommit

1. *Create CodeCommit Repository:*

   - Navigate to CodeCommit in the AWS Management Console.

   - Create a new repository for your project.

   

2. *Connect GitHub Repository:*

   - Use AWS CLI or the AWS Management Console to clone the CodeCommit repository.

   - Push your GitHub repository content to the CodeCommit repository.

3. *Test Connection:*

   - Ensure that the connection between GitHub and CodeCommit is successful by pushing a commit and verifying it in CodeCommit.

## Setting Up AWS CodeBuild

1. *Create Build Project:*

   - Go to CodeBuild in the AWS Management Console.

   - Create a new build project.

   

2. *Configure buildspec.yml:*

   - In your project root, create a buildspec.yml file with the following content

3. *Test Build Process:*

   - Trigger a build in CodeBuild and ensure it completes successfully.

## Deploying to Elastic Beanstalk

1. *Create Elastic Beanstalk Application:*

   - Navigate to Elastic Beanstalk in the AWS Management Console.

   - Create a new application and environment.

   

2. *Configure Environment:*

   - Set up the environment with the necessary configurations (e.g., instance type, platform).

   

3. *Deploy Sample Application:*

   - Deploy a sample application to ensure the environment is set up correctly.

## Integrating AWS CodePipeline

1. *Create CodePipeline:*

   - Go to CodePipeline in the AWS Management Console.

   - Create a new pipeline.

   

2. *Add Source Stage:*

   - Select CodeCommit as the source provider and choose your repository.

   

3. *Add Build Stage:*

   - Add CodeBuild as the build provider and select your build project.

   

4. *Add Deploy Stage:*

   - Add Elastic Beanstalk as the deploy provider and select your environment.

## Testing the Deployment Pipeline

1. *Push Code Changes:*

   - Make changes to your code and push to the GitHub repository.

   

2. *Monitor Pipeline Execution:*

   - Go to CodePipeline in the AWS Management Console and monitor the pipeline execution.

   

3. *Ensure Successful Deployment:*

   - Verify that the code changes are successfully deployed to Elastic Beanstalk.

## Implementing Auto-Scaling

1. *Configure Auto-Scaling:*

   - Go to the Elastic Beanstalk environment settings.

   - Enable and configure auto-scaling based on your application's requirements.

   

2. *Set Up Scaling Policies:*

   - Define scaling policies based on metrics such as CPU utilization or request count.

   

3. *Test Auto-Scaling:*

   - Simulate traffic to your application and verify that auto-scaling works as expected.

## Security and Backup

1. *Review Security Groups:*

   - Ensure that security groups are configured to allow only necessary traffic.

   

2. *Set Up Automated Backups:*

   - Configure automated backups for your data.

   

3. *Conduct Security Audit:*

   - Perform a security audit to ensure that all components are secure.

## Final Review and Handoff

1. *Review Setup:*

   - Conduct a thorough review of the entire setup for completeness and correctness.

   

2. *Final Deployment Test:*

   - Perform a final deployment test to ensure everything works as expected.

   

3. *Handoff:*

   - Document the setup and hand off the project to Blog and live
