Abstract:

The payment industry has evolved a lot in the tech aspect. Free-For-All features a CI/CD culture because of cloud-computing integration intended to improve the CI/CD pipeline for payment gateways. Two cloud platforms, Azure and AWS, provide rich CI/CD services that include numerous automation tools, which enable payment gateways to provide high availability, security, and scalability. This paper considers the Azure and AWS CI/CD solutions for the automated deployment of payment gateways. One of the issues that contribute to the decision is the integration of tools, security, deployment options, and cost. A comparison is made between Azure Pipelines and AWS CodePipeline, and some recommendations for formulating the payment gateway automation are provided to meet compliance, security, and operational excellence needs. Lastly, we will give the advantages and disadvantages of the respective platforms and explain how to construct a single strategy for CI/CD for payment gateways.
