DevOps CI/CD Project: Jenkins, Ansible and Kubernetes

Want to know how Git, Jenkins, Maven, Docker, Ansible, and Kubernetes actually work together in a real DevOps pipeline — not just in theory, but hands-on, end-to-end?

In this course, you'll build a complete CI/CD pipeline from scratch to deploy a real Java application — the same way it's done in production environments. You won't just learn what each tool does in isolation; you'll learn how they connect, step by step, into one working pipeline.

What you'll build:

• Set up Jenkins, Maven, and GitHub for continuous integration

• Deploy artifacts to a Tomcat server and automate builds with Poll SCM

• Containerize your app with Docker and manage deployments with Ansible

• Set up a Kubernetes cluster on AWS EKS and deploy your app as pods

• Automate the entire flow — from a Git commit to a live deployment on Kubernetes — using Jenkins and Ansible together

By the end of this course, you'll be able to set up a complete CI/CD pipeline on your own, using the same tools and workflow followed by real DevOps teams.

Who this course is for:

• Anyone who already knows the basics of Git, Jenkins, Docker, Ansible, or Kubernetes individually, but wants to see how they fit together in one real pipeline

• Anyone preparing for DevOps interviews or real-world project work who wants hands-on practice, not just theory

I'm AR Shankar, and I've spent 10+ years working in DevOps. I built this course the way I wish someone had taught me — with a real project, real problems, and a clear step-by-step path from start to finish.

Requirements: Basic familiarity with AWS, Git, Maven, Jenkins, Docker, Ansible, and Kubernetes; an AWS free-tier account to follow along.
