Introduction
Establish a pipeline between Github and EC2 instance.

The definition of a pipeline with regard to DevOps must first be understood in order for us to comprehend the design of a pipeline fully.

A pipeline is a group of automated procedures or tools that developers use to create and release code into a live environment. Generally speaking, a pipeline consists of three primary parts:

Build automation/continuous integration

• Test automation
• Deploy automation

It generally contains a set of tools that are divided into the following parts :

• Source Control
• Build tools
• Containerization
• Configuration Management
• Monitoring

Let’s go on and see how to use the procedures listed below to establish a pipeline between a GitHub activity and an EC2 instance:
