Accelerating cloud native deployment with GitHub Actions and AWS
summary
Builds a PR-scoped Elastic Beanstalk app on every pull request using the EB CLI and GitHub Actions, runs flake8 and pytest, and injects AWS creds via GitHub Secrets so reviewers get a live URL named by repo/owner/PR. Merges trigger CodePipeline for staged delivery with CodePipeline approvals and audit trail, testing can be gated, and production switch uses blue/green with Route53 weighted routing for gradual A/B traffic. This is a working, repeatable pipeline replacing long‑lived test servers.
