Abstract

The integration of Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has revolutionized software development and infrastructure management in the cloud era. This paper explores the utilization of AWS services, such as AWS CodePipeline, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, CloudFormation, and Elastic Beanstalk, to optimize and automate the software development lifecycle. By implementing CI/CD, teams can automate the build, test, and deployment processes, ensuring faster delivery, reduced errors, and higher software quality. IaC, on the other hand, shifts infrastructure management from manual processes to automated, code-driven methods, enhancing efficiency, scalability, and consistency. This paper delves into best practices and design patterns that leverage AWS services for IaC and CI/CD, focusing on achieving high availability, scalability, and security. Key AWS services are analyzed for their roles in automating infrastructure management, deploying microservices, and ensuring reliable application performance. By integrating these technologies, organizations can streamline operations, reduce time-to-market, and maintain high-quality applications in a dynamic technological landscape. This research highlights the critical aspects of AWS services that enable efficient, reliable, and scalable software delivery, positioning these practices as essential for modern software engineering.
