In the last two episodes we have configured the Docker environment and automated deployment with Elastic Beanstalk, but still the process requires some manual actions and I personally would like to avoid any unnecessary interference in the process. So, today I will walk you through combining all the pieces together and automating the process fully. A continuous integration system will be placed between developer’s environment and final servers.

And that’s why I decided to create a series of tutorials in which we will configure a virtual machine, join the configuration to the project, automatically deploy and connect everything together with a continuous delivery tool.
