To automate the deployment of a built project into a production environment, CI/CD (Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment) tools are typically used. For example, a pipeline can be configured in Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or other systems, which automatically copies artifacts to the server, performs deployment, and restarts services after a successful build.
A simple automation scenario might include:
- Building the project (using Gradle or Maven, for example)
- Running tests
- Copying the built files to the server (via SCP, rsync, or specialized plugins)
- Executing deployment scripts (such as restarting a service or updating a Docker container)
This approach helps minimize manual actions and reduces the likelihood of errors when rolling out new versions.
