Best Practices

Practice Implementation
Immutable Infrastructure Use versioned infrastructure templates and containers for deployment
Chaos Engineering Implement failure injection testing with controlled experiments
Auto-Scaling Configure dynamic resource allocation based on workload

Example CI/CD Pipeline

// GitHub Actions workflow example for deployment automation
name: Node.js Application

on:
  push:
    branches: [ "main" ]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v4

    - name: Use Node.js 18
      uses: actions/setup-node@v3
      with:
        node-version: 18

    - run: npm install
    - run: npm run build
    - run: npm run test

  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    needs: build
    steps:
    - name: Deploy to production
      run: |
        docker build -t my-app .
        docker tag my-app registry:my-app
        docker push registry:my-app

This workflow demonstrates automated testing and container deployment.
