@raffi "build. test. deploy. the circle of life."

Build and test every commit (CI)

Deploy any commit, branch, or tag

Monitor and scale running applications

Rapidly build and deploy new applications

Keep it simple and extensible

You don't need (Docker) to do any of this

CircleCI (Build, Test)

Use existing Docker-based infrastructure

Build Docker image in CircleCI using sspinc/docker-build

Run tests in a container (docker run <image> script/circleci-test)

Push image to Docker Hub if successful (sha1, branch, tag)

If you don't run your tests in a container, you're doing it wrong!

GitHub Flow (Release)

Anyone can cut a release on master

Follow semantic versioning to communicate changes

Tag commit and push release tag to GitHub

Procfile (Run)

​

Declare commands of your application

web: bundle exec puma -C ./config/puma.rb
worker: bundle exec sidekiq -C ./config/sidekiq.yml
product: bundle exec rake service:product

Empire (Deploy, Scale)

Thin layer on top of ECS, ELB, Route 53

Deploy Docker images from Docker Hub (ECS)

Scale processes (ECS)

Rolling upgrades (ECS)

A self-hosted PaaS built on Docker & Amazon ECS

Logspout (Monitor, Log)

​

Log routing for Docker container logs (gliderlabs/logspout)

Runs on all our instances

Write logs to Kafka topics (sspinc/logspout-kafka)

Structured logs and metrics (sspinc/logr)

logger.event('feed_received', partner: 'abercrombie', type: 'product')
      .monitored('Feed received', 'Even more explanation.')
      .metric('total_bytes', 23764237, type: 'counter')
      .info('Received feed')
{
  "logger": "feeds",
  "level": "info",
  "event": { "name": "feed_received", "partner": "abercrombie" },
  "metrics": [{ name: "total_bytes": 23764237 }],
  "message": "Received feed"
}
