A simple way to deploy versioned AWS resources.
A simple web based deployment portal for AWS resources.
Authorized users can perform drag-n-drop deployments without understanding the technical aspects of the AWS resource being deployed. Resources like Fargate Tasks, Lambda Functions, and S3 Objects are versioned, deployed, and monitored in the same way reducing complexity.
This portal compliments CI/CD processes like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, TeamCity, AWS CodeBuild, CircleCI, and the like with a user friendly GUI. It is not intended to be a replacement for CI/CD pipelines.

The portal functions as a passive monitoring and active deployment platform. The architecture diagram is divided into two sections, monitoring and user actions.
NOTE: semver tag format required v1.0.0-rc
$ git tag {{TAG}}
$ git push origin {{TAG}}
Once the GitHub Actions build is complete the Docker image tagged {{TAG}} release will be published to Quay.io.
