Ignite - Blue Green Deployments Using Terraform + Packer + Jenkins
summary
A migration from a rigid weekly release (every Tuesday with a Thursday code freeze and ~2.5 days of QA) to a pipeline that bakes AMIs with Packer, defines blue/green infrastructure with Terraform, and triggers tests and deployments via Jenkins. The team replaces 4–6 people spending 4–6 hours shepherding releases with automated unit, functional and smoke tests, AMI validation, and a Terraform-driven blue/green switch that enables fast rollbacks and smaller, less risky deployments.
