SOLUTION ARCHITECTURE

The solution architecture for CollabSphere aims to create a robust and efficient integration of DevOps

tools to streamline workflows and improve team collaboration. By integrating tools like GitHub,

Jenkins, Slack, JIRA, Docker, Kubernetes, Prometheus, and Grafana, the architecture ensures a

seamless workflow that fosters efficiency, transparency, and reliability.

To achieve this, the following steps and directory structures have been established:

Directory Structure

The project is structured as follows to facilitate easy navigation, modularization, and scalability:

VERSION CONTROL SETUP

GitHub is used for version control to ensure collaborative development, tracking of changes,

and codebase integrity. Below are the setup steps:

1. Initialize Git in the Project:

git init

2. Create a .gitignore File to avoid committing unnecessary files:

echo node_modules/ > .gitignore

echo .env >> .gitignore

3. Add Files to Git:

git add .
PHASE 2

4. Commit the Initial Codebase:

git commit -m "Initial commit of CollabSphere project structure"

5. Create a GitHub Repository (via GitHub web interface).

6. Push the Local Repository to GitHub:

git remote add origin <repository_url>

git push -u origin master

CI/CD PIPELINE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION

Jenkins is used to automate the build, test, and deployment processes. The pipeline is

designed with the following stages:

1. Jenkins Setup:

o Install Jenkins on a server and configure it with necessary plugins like Docker,

Git, and Kubernetes CLI.

o Set up a Jenkins job triggered by code changes pushed to the GitHub

repository.

2. Jenkins Pipeline Creation:

o Create a Jenkinsfile in the root of the project. This file defines the pipeline

stages.

Example Jenkinsfile:

pipeline {

agent any
PHASE 2

environment {

DOCKER_IMAGE = 'collabsphere'

REGISTRY_URL = '<your_docker_registry_url>'

K8S_CLUSTER = '<kubernetes_cluster_name>'

stages {

stage('Checkout') {

steps {

git 'https://github.com/<username>/CollabSphere.git'

stage('Build Docker Image') {

steps {

script {

sh 'docker build -t $REGISTRY_URL/$DOCKER_IMAGE .'

}
PHASE 2

stage('Push Docker Image to Registry') {

steps {

script {

sh 'docker push $REGISTRY_URL/$DOCKER_IMAGE'

stage('Deploy to Kubernetes') {

steps {

script {

sh '''

kubectl apply -f config/kubeconfig.yaml

kubectl rollout restart deployment/collabsphere-deployment

'''

}
PHASE 2

post {

success {

echo 'Pipeline executed successfully.'

failure {

echo 'Pipeline failed. Check logs for details.'

MONITORING AND ALERTING SETUP

Prometheus and Grafana are used for monitoring the application and generating real-time

alerts.

1. Prometheus Configuration:

 Add the target services to prometheus.yml:

scrape_configs:

- job_name: 'collabsphere'

static_configs:
PHASE 2

- targets: ['localhost:8000']

2. Grafana Setup:

 Configure Grafana to visualize metrics collected by Prometheus.

3. Expose Custom Metrics using Prometheus Python client:

from prometheus_client import start_http_server, Gauge

import time

# Define custom metrics

requests_in_progress = Gauge('requests_in_progress', 'Number of requests in progress')

# Start HTTP server

start_http_server(8000)

while True:

requests_in_progress.set(5) # Example metric

time.sleep(10)

FUTURE PLAN

1. Streamlining Tool Integration:

o Automate updates, notifications, and data sharing using Zapier or custom

webhooks.

2. Advanced CI/CD Pipeline Enhancements:

o Include automated testing and deployment validation steps.

3. Enhanced Monitoring and Security:

o Implement anomaly detection and vulnerability scanning.

4. Scaling and Performance Optimization:

o Use Kubernetes for dynamic scaling and efficient resource utilization.

By addressing these areas comprehensively, CollabSphere will enable enhanced team

collaboration, faster delivery, and reliable operations.
