Abstract: Automation is a core principle of modern DevOps, enabling reliable, repeatable, and efficient deployment of enterprise applications. JBoss and Apache Tomcat, widely used middleware platforms, require careful strategies for CI/CD integration, performance optimization, and security compliance. This review explores automated deployment pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, containerization, and orchestration with Kubernetes. It examines best practices for JVM tuning, thread management, load balancing, and security, including RBAC, encrypted communications, and compliance with standards like HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR. Case studies in financial services, healthcare, and retail illustrate real-world applications, demonstrating reduced downtime, increased scalability, and improved operational efficiency. Challenges such as legacy system integration, multi-environment complexity, and skill gaps are addressed with mitigation strategies. Emerging trends in AI-driven orchestration, serverless computing, microservices, and predictive analytics offer future enhancements for DevOps automation. The review synthesizes technical insights and practical guidance to help enterprises optimize deployment workflows and maintain high availability, security, and performance across hybrid and cloud-based environments.
