Summary
BrowserStack's developers use CI/CD pipelines to automate testing and deployment processes, ensuring code works as intended. They initially used multiple platforms for deployments but faced scalability issues as the company grew. To address this, they transitioned to a distributed system using Kubernetes on AWS EKS, which allowed them to scale horizontally and manage jobs as code. They also implemented Infrastructure as Code and Configuration as Code, streamlining their CI/CD process. The new architecture has reduced job waiting times, saved resources, and minimized maintenance efforts for Jenkins.
