Continuous integration and continuous development or CI/ CD is one of the best modern software practices for DevOps teams deploying multiple applications in different types of servers. In IaaS based cloud software services, developers are required to configure their own servers and everything else, except the hardware components. Imagine having to regularly check for securities, operations, and development updates. This tutorial will show you how to write your own simple CI/CD bash script to automate all these tasks.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): IaaS is a cloud service model offering access to computing resources like servers, storage, and networks. The IaaS provider hosts and manages this infrastructure. Unlike PaaS or SaaS, customers use the internet to access the hardware and resources.

Continuous integration (CI): This is the continuous automation of integration of code changes or frequent updates at mentioned time intervals. This facilitates effective processes for getting products to market faster than ever before by ensuring an ongoing flow and bug fixes without the constant need for manual help.

Continuous development (CD): Continuous development comprises the automated tests, builds, and packages updated in software to ensure it is kept up-to-date and evolves from time to time. Every change that passes the automated tests is automatically placed in production so that the developers are not constrained by regulatory or other requirements.
