Learning Outcome
5
Differentiate between traditional deployment and CI/CD in AWS
4
Identify the role of AWS cloud in enabling CI/CD
3
Understand how automation improves software delivery
2
Define CI/CD in the context of AWS
1
Explain why CI/CD is needed in modern cloud-based applications
WHY CI/CD in AWS?
vs
Modern applications
Need fast bug fixes
Are updated frequently
Serve thousands or millions of users
Cannot afford downtime
Traditional deployment problems
Environment mismatch
Manual build and testing
Deployment delay
High risk of production errors
AWS solves these challenges by:
Allowing fast and reliable releases
Providing scalable cloud infrastructure
Enabling automation
Supporting continuous monitoring
Therefore, CI/CD in AWS is needed to deliver applications faster, safer and more consistently in the cloud
WHAT is CI/CD in AWS?
CI/CD in AWS means:
Using AWS cloud infrastructure to automate the process of:
Integrating code changes
Core Concepts (.....Slide N-3)
WHAT is CI/CD in AWS?
CI/CD in AWS means:
Using AWS cloud infrastructure to automate the process of:
Integrating code changes
Building applications
Testing automatically
Preparing applications for deployment
Releasing updates reliably
Core Concepts (.....Slide N-3)
In simple terms:
Whenever a developer pushes code,
AWS enables:
Automatic validation
Automatic build process
Automatic readiness for release
CI/CD in AWS is not just automation —
it is cloud-powered automation that is scalable, reliable, and always available
Core Concepts (.....Slide N-3)
Traditional vs AWS-Based CI/CD
Traditional Approach:
Manual builds
Manual testing
Manual deployment
Slow release cycle
AWS-Based CI/CD:
Automated workflows
Cloud-based infrastructure
Faster release cycles
High scalability
Better reliability
Core Concepts (.....Slide N-3)
In the next session, we will learn in depth which AWS services are used to implement CI/CD pipelines and how they work together
Summary
5
CI/CD in AWS improves speed, reliability and consistency
4
AWS enables scalable and automated CI/CD workflows
3
Traditional deployments are slow and error-prone
2
CD ensures software is always ready for release
1
CI integrates and tests code continuously
