When we talk about DevOps, collaboration is a key point. To  support the DevOps culture, in this video, we will learn about the  Delivery pipeline to support all people involved in the delivery process  to easily visualize the stages to deploy a new change in the software.

• Understand the continuous delivery pipeline

• Understand a typical delivery pipeline

For a long time, Jenkins has had a default interaction model the  web UI, but together with CI practices, Jenkins creator has understood  that the delivery pipeline should be part of the source code. In this  video we will give an introduction of this new feature. 

• Review the default Jenkins interaction model and its disadvantages

• Introduce the CI as Code concept through Jenkins pipeline and its advantages

To start using Jenkins pipeline we need to install some required  plugins. In this video, we will install the necessary plugins to start  writing Jenkins Pipelines.

CI as code can be accomplished via the JenkinsFile, a way of  keeping the logic of your pipeline stored at the same repository as the  application that you are build. This video will explain how this is  possible with Jenkins.

• Learn what the JenkinsFile is

• Understand how the pipeline works with JenkinsFile

In this video, we will create a JenkinsFile and commit it together  with a java project and create a pipeline project on Jenkins to run the  pipeline from this file.

Docker is a well-known technology widely used today. In this  video, we will briefly explain what Docker is and how it can support the  CI environment.

• Understand the basics of Docker

To run Docker on Jenkins nodes we need first to install the Docker  platform to start building the application with containers. This video  will explain how to prepare the Jenkins machine for that.   

• Install Docker on a Linux Jenkins node machine

• Run migrations with H2 database

• Prepare Flyway to run migrations on staging environment

In this video, we will run the database migration scripts against  the staging environment and create the Jenkins build pipeline to  orchestrate it together with the execution of the automated tests.                         

• Verify staging environment
