Maven Web Application

Overview

This project is a Maven-based web application developed to demonstrate [insert purpose or functionality]. It utilizes AWS for cloud deployment and Jenkins for Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) to ensure efficient and reliable application delivery.

Features

• AWS Deployment: The application is hosted on Amazon Web Services, leveraging its scalability and reliability.
• CI/CD Pipeline: Automated build, test, and deployment processes using Jenkins.

Prerequisites

Before setting up the project, ensure you have the following installed:

• Java Development Kit (JDK) 8 or higher: Download Link
• Apache Maven 3.6.0 or higher: Download Link
• Git: Download Link
• AWS Account: Sign Up
• Jenkins: Installation Guide

Getting Started

Follow these steps to set up and run the project locally:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/SHAIKSHOAIB-GIT/maven-web-application.git
   

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd maven-web-application
   

3. Build the project using Maven:

      mvn clean install
   

4. Run the application:

   mvn spring-boot:run

Replace with the appropriate command if not using Spring Boot.

Access the application: Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080/.

AWS Deployment The application is deployed on AWS, utilizing services such as EC2 for hosting. Deployment is managed through Jenkins, ensuring seamless updates and scalability.

CI/CD Pipeline A robust CI/CD pipeline is implemented using Jenkins to automate the build, test, and deployment processes:

Continuous Integration (CI):

Code Integration: Upon code commits to the GitHub repository, Jenkins triggers the build process. Automated Testing: Executes unit and integration tests to validate code changes. Continuous Deployment (CD):

Artifact Deployment: Successful builds are deployed to AWS EC2 instances. Monitoring: Post-deployment monitoring ensures application stability. This automation enhances development efficiency and reduces manual intervention, leading to faster release cycles.
