ABSTRACT

Modern software development emphasizes automation, efficiency, and rapid delivery of applications to
production environments. This project focuses on implementing a CI/CD pipeline to automate the build,
testing, and deployment processes for a simplified Airbnb Clone application built with the PERN stack
(PostgreSQL, Express, React, Node.js).

By integrating DevOps tools, the project ensures:

• Faster and reliable deployments


• Reduced manual intervention
• Enhanced code quality

The pipeline is designed to trigger automatically upon every code push, enabling:

• Builds
• Unit testing
• Deployments to staging environments

PHASE 1

This phase analyzes core challenges faced in manual deployments, identifies requirements, and selects
appropriate tools for an efficient CI/CD setup.

PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Consider a scenario where The Airbnb Clone aims to streamline hosting and booking accommodations.
However, the project encounters several challenges:

1. Manual Deployment Overhead


• Deploying the full stack (frontend, backend, database) manually leads to errors,
inconsistencies, and delays.
2. Lack of Automation
• The absence of automated build, test, and deployment stages slows down feature delivery.
3. Environment Management Issues
• Managing consistent deployments across staging and production environments is inefficient.
4. Scalability Concerns
• Without automation, scaling deployments for growing user demands becomes challenging.

KEY PARAMETERS IDENTIFIED

1. Deployment Challenges:
• Manual image builds and inconsistent deployments.

2. CI/CD Pipeline Inefficiency:


• Lack of automated testing and artifact storage management.

3. User Needs:
• Faster delivery of features and bug fixes.
• Streamlined, automated deployment workflows.

2. Automate Docker image builds for frontend and backend services.

3. Deploy containerized applications to staging environments using Kubernetes.

4. Integrate unit testing to validate application stability.

• Non-Functional Requirements:

1. Consistent and repeatable deployment workflows.


2. Improved scalability and reliability.
3. Secure artifact storage and version control for deployments.

• Set up automated triggers for build, test, and deployment workflows.


• Integrate unit tests to validate changes before deployment.

2. Streamlining Kubernetes Deployment

• Use Helm charts for consistent microservice deployments.


• Implement autoscaling to handle increased user traffic.

3. Enhancing Code Quality and Security

• Integrate static code analysis tools for automated reviews.


• Implement secure artifact scanning to reduce vulnerabilities.

CONCLUSION

By setting up a CI/CD pipeline for the simplified Airbnb Clone, this project lays the foundation for
automated and scalable deployments. Integrating DevOps tools ensures:

• Efficient workflows
• Code reliability
• Faster delivery cycles

This automation allows developers to focus on feature development rather than managing deployments
