  • Abstract

    The rapid adoption of cloud-native applications, DevOps, CI/CD practices, and microservices has improved software delivery in terms of speed, reliability, and scalability, while also introducing challenges in build management, dependency handling, testing, deployment, and monitoring. This study proposes an integrated CI/CD framework combining Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and AWS CodePipeline to streamline the software delivery lifecycle for microservices-based applications. Jenkins supports build automation and orchestration, GitHub Actions enables source-code integration and automated workflows, and AWS CodePipeline provides scalable deployment and release management. The framework was implemented and evaluated using a microservices application deployed on AWS. Performance was assessed using deployment frequency, build success rate, deployment time, and operational efficiency. Results demonstrate improved automation, faster release cycles, reduced deployment errors, and enhanced collaboration between development and operations teams. The proposed framework also improves scalability, traceability, and security, providing a practical approach for efficient microservices deployment in cloud-native environments.
