Abstract
The rapid adoption of cloud-native application delivery has intensified the need for automated, reliable, and scalable software deployment solutions. Conventional software deployment methods rely heavily on manual processes, leading to configuration inconsistencies, deployment failures, high operational costs, and slower release cycles. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes a DevOps Automation Pipeline integrated with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) that automates the complete application lifecycle from code commit to production deployment. The proposed system employs GitHub for source code management, Azure DevOps Pipelines for Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), and Terraform for declarative cloud resource provisioning on Microsoft Azure. Containerization using Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes enhance application portability, scalability, and environment consistency. Azure Monitor and Log Analytics provide real-time observability into pipeline execution and deployed application health. Experimental validation demonstrates substantial improvements over manual baselines: 95% reduction in deployment lead time (from days to under 18 minutes), 80% reduction in change failure rate, and 90% reduction in mean time to recovery.
