AWS deployment pipeline
Python
A Docker-based CI/CD pipeline deploying a Django application to AWS ECS with automated rollbacks and environment promotion.
Cut deploy time from 45 minutes to under 5, with zero-downtime releases.
Problem
Deployments were manual, error-prone and required SSH access to production.
Solution
Containerised the app with Docker, set up GitHub Actions to build and push images to ECR, and configured ECS rolling deployments.
