A progression of projects that comes to mind:

1) CI and IAC that deploy a web app running in a container

2) Add horizontal scaling and load balancer

3) Add long running tasks / scheduled task support

4) Deploys will likely break long running tasks. Implement blue/green or rolling deploys or some other sort of advanced deployment scheme

5) Implement rollbacks
