This project showcases a full DevOps lifecycle using a Netflix-style full-stack app. It demonstrates modern infrastructure automation, CI/CD, observability, and secure deployment practices in the cloud.

• Full-stack application: Node.js backend + React frontend (TMDB API)
• Containerized with Docker & orchestrated via Docker Compose
• CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins, GitHub Webhooks & SSH deployment
• Monitoring via Prometheus & Grafana with custom metrics and alerts
• Hosted on AWS EC2 (Linux)
• Secure deployment planned with NGINX and HTTPS

• Build and containerize a production-ready app
• Automate deployment using Jenkins
• Monitor system health and app performance
• Secure and maintain infrastructure on AWS

git clone https://github.com/NazBilgic/netflix-devOps.git
cd netflix-devOps
docker-compose up --build

This will launch:

• Frontend (React + TMDB)
• Backend API (Node.js)
• Prometheus & Grafana for monitoring

Jenkins automatically builds and deploys on each push:

• Builds Docker images
• Connects to EC2 via SSH
• Pulls latest code and restarts containers

SSH key used: jenkins-github-key (stored securely in Jenkins)

• Prometheus scrapes metrics from the backend
• Grafana dashboards show usage, error rates, response time
• Alertmanager triggers notifications on HTTP 500 spikes

• NGINX reverse proxy with optional HTTPS (Let’s Encrypt)
• Basic authentication and token-based access possible

The backend exposes a /metrics endpoint with:

• Request count
• Status codes
• Response time

Prometheus scrapes every 15s, Grafana visualizes the trends.

• Add HTTPS with Let's Encrypt
• Integrate Slack/email alerts via Alertmanager
• Publish Docker images to Docker Hub
• Terraform the infrastructure
