A rapidly evolving startup is preparing to deploy an application that will undergo frequent iterations with multiple deployments expected each week. The application requires complex configuration, which includes coordinated updates across compute, database, and networking services. To ensure the most efficient deployment process for this scenario, which of the following methods should the startup employ?
Implement regular deployments using a container orchestration service like Amazon ECS without applying broader IaC strategies.
Leverage an Infrastructure as Code service such as AWS CloudFormation to codify and automate the complete deployment process.
Develop a series of manual scripts for configuring each service and run them sequentially for every update.
Repeatedly use the individual service consoles to configure and manage each service manually for every deployment.
Given the frequency of the deployments and the complexity involved in the application's infrastructure setup, the startup should employ an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solution such as AWS CloudFormation. This method enables them to automate and replicate complex deployments reliably, which is especially beneficial when deployments occur several times a week. It also helps maintain consistency and reduces the risk of manual errors. Using individual service consoles would not be sustainable, and although a container orchestration service like Amazon ECS could be part of the infrastructure, it alone does not address the full setup. Manual scripts, while they can be automated, typically do not provide the extensive benefits and safeguards of a complete IaC approach.
