In this chapter we studied examples of how to launch and configure a Continuous Integration environment on AWS.

We used our previous Terraform and SaltStack knowledge to prepare the AWS infrastructure.

With the help of Jenkins CI we composed a pipeline that would take application source code, run tests against it, build an RPM package and deposit that into a remote YUM repository for later use.

Our next topic will be on Continuous Delivery, an extension to Continuous Integration which takes us a step closer to being ready to deploy our application to a production environment with confidence.
