Summary

In this episode of "Will it Deploy?", the team successfully automates the deployment of a Spring Boot web application called Random Quotes on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) platform using Octopus Deploy. The deployment process involves cloud infrastructure provisioning with AWS CloudFormation Templates and ensures zero-downtime through a blue-green deployment pattern. Key steps include setting up an Octopus AWS account for secure authentication, transferring the Spring Boot jar package, copying it to an S3 bucket, and deploying it to Elastic Beanstalk environments. The process culminates in swapping environment URLs to achieve zero downtime during production deployment. The episode also encourages viewers to suggest future technologies for exploration and invites them to subscribe to the series' YouTube channel.
