In the previous chapter, we saw one of the platforms for our application, which is called Docker. It can isolate your application, and can be used to respond to your application request from the customer. During the course of this chapter, we will introduce you to the cloud platform, especially AWS (Amazon Cloud Services), which mainly deals with the IaaS (Infrastructure) and PaaS (Platform as a Service) Services. We will also look at how we can build up infrastructure, and deploy our application.

This chapter includes the following topics:

• Introducing AWS and its services
• Building application infrastructure using Terraform/CloudFormation
• Continuous Deployment using Jenkins
