GitHub Repo with Simple Application Code / Jenkinsfile / Docker File / Helm Chart etc.

Docker Image is Built/Tagged (Using commit hash) and Pushed to ECR.
Jenkins CI server Assumes Cross Account Role to connect to EKS account .
Helm Lint is performed and Helm packaging is done.
Application deployed in EKS Cluster with Rolling Update Deployment Strategy
Email and Slack Notification is sent upon Successful/Failure of Jenkins Pipeline

AWS EC2 Spot instances for Compute (Jenkins/Sonar)
Route53 used for DNS (mytwocents.click for Jenkins/Sonar and ramsawswork.click for Application in EKS)
Cross Account Access using IAM Role
Amazon Certificate Manager (ACM) is used to Secure the Application deployed in EKS
Zero-Downtime Deployment with EKS
Readiness/Liveness probes and Pod CPU/Memory Requests and Limits set.
Ingress enabled in EKS so multiple applications can be hosted and routed seamlessly in EKS
Pod Autoscaling is Setup with Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) with Scaling Criteria of CPU-Percentage > 50%
