How to Get CI/CD on AWS Without Hiring a DevOps Team

Imagine being able to deploy your application on AWS with professional CI/CD pipelines—without hiring a full DevOps team. With SleakOps, it’s not just possible, it’s simple. In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to automate your deployments in minutes.

The Problem Everyone Faces

Setting up CI/CD on AWS the traditional way requires:

  • Weeks of setup: Between EKS, CodePipeline, ECR, and endless integrations.
  • Specialized knowledge: Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, and more.
  • Ongoing maintenance: Updates, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
  • High costs: Both in time and skilled resources.

“Our team spent 3 months trying to configure a CI/CD pipeline in AWS. With SleakOps, we had it running in an afternoon.” — CTO, Fintech Startup.

The Solution: SleakOps

🚀 Automated Deployments in 3 Steps

1.Connect your repo: GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.

3. Deploy automatically: Every push triggers the pipeline.

2. Set up your pipeline: Copy and paste the SleakOps-provided YAML.

⚡Features You’ll Love

  • Zero-config Kubernetes: Your EKS cluster ready in minutes.

  • Auto-scaling: Karpenter provisions resources for you.
  • Built-in monitoring: Metrics and logs, no extra setup required.

Before (manual process):

Total time: 2–3 hours per deploy.

After (with SleakOps):

  • Push to main branch.
  • Automated build in AWS.
  • Zero-downtime deployment.
  • One-click rollback if needed.

Total time: 5–10 minutes, fully automated.
