Deploying Spring PetClinic Microservices on AWS EKS: A Team Story

Source: Dev.to

When our group of 11 was handed the brief for our DMI DevOps Micro-Internship capstone project, the goal was clear: take a real-world microservices application and deploy it end-to-end on AWS using production-grade tooling. No shortcuts, no simulated environments. The kind of setup you’d actually find in a professional engineering team.
