CI/CD Pipeline with Azure DevOps and Jira

Overview

This project showcases a CI/CD pipeline implementation using Azure DevOps and Jira. Developed during my first week as an intern at Nevotek, it includes end-to-end integration and deployment to Azure Web Apps.

Key Features

• Development Environment:

  • Tools: Docker, Azure CLI, Visual Studio Code.
  • Platforms: Windows and Linux VM for development.

• Pipeline Workflow:

  Code commits to Azure Repos. CI pipeline triggers on master branch merge. Builds artifact and deploys using blue-green strategy. Runs tests and pushes to Azure Container Registry (ACR). Deploys to staging and creates Jira issue for testing. Swaps environments and requires manager approval for production.

Challenges

• Configured service connections and principals in Azure.
• Managed Azure Web App port configurations.
• Integrated Jira for automated issue tracking.

Learnings

• Implemented blue-green deployments.
• Integrated multiple services in a CI/CD pipeline.
• Adapted to limitations with local agent setup.
