DevOps Micro‑Internship: Setting Up My Delivery Workflow
Today I completed the first practical task of the DevOps Micro‑Internship, and it was a full end-to-end workflow that mirrors how real engineering teams deliver software.
Here’s what I accomplished:
🔹 Set Up My Local Development Environment
Cloned the Pravin Mishra Portfolio Template repository and created a dedicated feature branch:
feature/footer-v1
This ensured I followed a clean, professional Git workflow.
🔹 Made My First UI Increment
Opened the project in VS Code and added the required footer text to the homepage.
Committed the change using a semantic commit message to keep history clean and traceable.
🔹 Deployed to My EC2 Instance
Uploaded the updated files using SCP, served them via Nginx, and verified the change live at:
👉 http://35.176.28.156
🔹 Updated Jira to Reflect Real Delivery Flow
Moved my Day 1 sub‑task from To Do → In Progress → Done
Added my Daily Scrum comment to the Story to maintain visibility and accountability.
What I Learned
• How to follow a real DevOps workflow: code → commit → deploy → verify
• Why all work should be done locally, not directly on EC2
• How to deploy static website changes using SCP + Nginx
• How to troubleshoot server issues (missing Nginx, missing directories, permissions)
• How to track work professionally in Jira using subtasks, sprint goals, and Daily Scrum updates
• The value of shipping small, visible increments instead of waiting for a big final change
• How to validate deployments by checking the live URL
This experience reinforced something I believe strongly:
DevOps is not just about tools — it’s about discipline, clarity, and delivering value in small, reliable steps.
I want to sincerely thank my mentors, Pravin Mishra, Praveen Pandey, Abhishek Makwana and Mobarak Hosen
