# DevOps Challenge: Microservice with Update Automation
The DevOps Challenge consists of two parts:
1. (Deployment)[#deployment]: Installation of an application with automated updates
2. (Concept)[#concept]: Strategy for backup, redundancy, monitoring, and logging
The scripts, data, concepts, etc., created for these tasks should be stored in a Git repository within the Gitea installation.
Note: The use of AI tools such as ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot is explicitly
permitted.
## Deployment
### Installation
Your team has decided to use the DevOps platform Gitea and wants to run its own instance. Perform the deployment on a host system (cloud subscription, VPS, or your own laptop) that is accessible from the internet by your interviewer, while adhering to the following requirements:
- Choice of installation source: source code, package manager, or Docker
- Installation must be automated and reproducible (free choice of configuration management system)
- Use of a reverse proxy and SSL (self-signed is sufficient)
- UI must be accessible only via the proxy
- Setup and integration of a database (PostgreSQL, MariaDB, or MySQL)
### Update Automation
Once Gitea is successfully set up, configure automation for the update processusing a tool of your choice.
## Concept
For Backup, Redundancy, Monitoring, and Logging develop and document your concept regarding the following topics that will be discussed during the interview:
- Backup
- Centralized logging of components
- Monitoring of key functions
- Fail-safe operation of the instance
### Optional
Creation of a proof-of-concept for one or more aspects of your concept
(backup, monitoring, logging, redundancy)
