End-to-End CI/CD with GitHub Actions + AWS (OIDC, ECR, EC2, S3) | Real Project

Description

🚀 Build a Real CI/CD Pipeline with GitHub Actions & AWS In this video, I walk through a complete end-to-end DevOps pipeline using GitHub Actions and Amazon Web Services — without storing any AWS credentials. We’ll use OIDC authentication, build and push a Docker image to Amazon Elastic Container Registry, and deploy it to an EC2 instance using AWS Systems Manager. The deployed application provides a clean UI where users can upload files, which are then stored in Amazon S3. 🔧 What You’ll Learn • Secure authentication using OIDC (no AWS keys) • Building Docker images in CI • Pushing images to ECR • Deploying containers to EC2 using SSM (no SSH) • Designing a simple but practical cloud application • Uploading files to S3 from a web app 🏗️ Architecture Overview GitHub → OIDC → AWS → Build Docker Image → Push to ECR → Deploy to EC2 via SSM → App Uploads Files to S3 💡 Why This Matters • 🔐 No long-lived credentials (modern best practice) • ⚙️ Fully automated CI/CD pipeline • 🚀 Real-world deployment flow • 🧠 Great for DevOps interviews & projects ⭐ Tools Used • GitHub Actions • Docker • Amazon Elastic Container Registry • Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud • AWS Systems Manager • Amazon S3 Source Code link: https://github.com/gautam43/s3demo My LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gautam-khatri-8891b3127/ #github #githubactions #aws #oidc #cicd #docker #dockercontainer #awsssm #ecr #devops #awsdevops #deployment #ec2
