In today’s fast-paced development environments, DevOps practices are crucial for efficient software delivery and continuous integration. In this blog, I’ll walk you through a recent project where we employed Kubernetes, Docker, Jenkins and SonarQube to manage and optimize a Node.js backend and a Next.js frontend. This project showcases the integration of these technologies to achieve streamlined development workflows and robust application performance.

Project Overview

1. Project Objectives

  • Containerization: Utilize Docker to containerize Node.js and Next.js applications.

  • Orchestration: Deploy and manage containers using Kubernetes.

  • Code Quality: Integrate SonarQube for continuous code quality checks and analysis.

  • Continuous Integration and Delivery: Set up a pipeline to automate testing and deployment using Jenkins.

2. Technologies Used

  • Docker: For creating isolated containers for both backend and frontend applications.

  • Kubernetes: For container orchestration and management.

  • HorizontalAutoScaler: To automate the increase and decrease the number of PODS as per demand.

  • Jenkins: For Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery.

  • SonarQube: For continuous code quality inspection and analysis.

  • Node.js: Backend runtime environment.

  • Next.js: Frontend framework.
