Deploying a Java web app with a MySQL backend through Octopus Deploy

In his blog post, Shawn Sesna provides a comprehensive guide to building and deploying a Java-based web application with a MySQL backend using Azure DevOps and Octopus Deploy. The tutorial details the setup process, including the configuration of Java Development Kit (JDK) and Maven on a build agent, and the modification of the Maven Project Object Model (POM) file to support dynamic versioning and MySQL. Sesna also introduces Flyway, a migration-based database deployment tool, to manage SQL scripts and database changes. The guide walks through setting up Azure DevOps to package and push the application to Octopus Deploy, where it is further configured for deployment on web servers like Wildfly. Throughout the process, Sesna emphasizes the use of environment-specific variables and best practices in configuration to streamline CI/CD workflows and ensure successful deployment across various environments.
