What's included

• Terraform Code Development & Management

  Write and maintain Terraform configurations to provision cloud infrastructure in AWS/Azure; Utilize Terraform modules to deploy scalable and reusable infrastructure; Manage Terraform state files securely using remote backends like S3, Azure Storage, or GitLab.

• Infrastructure Provisioning & Automation

  Automate the deployment of virtual machines, storage, networking, and security groups using Terraform; Implement parameterized Terraform modules for consistency across different environments; Use Terraform workspaces and variable files for environment-based deployments.

• CI/CD Integration with GitLab

  Implement GitLab CI/CD pipelines for automated infrastructure provisioning and updates; Configure Terraform plan, apply, and destroy stages in GitLab pipelines for controlled deployments; Use GitLab runners for executing Terraform workflows in a version-controlled environment.

• Infrastructure Security & Compliance

  Enforce role-based access control (RBAC) and least privilege principles for Terraform execution; Ensure compliance with best practices and regulatory requirements (ISO 27001, GDPR, etc.).

• State Management & Version Control

  Maintain remote Terraform state with proper locking mechanisms to avoid conflicts; Use Git branching strategies (feature branches, merge requests) for infrastructure changes; Implement Terraform state drift detection and corrective actions.

• Monitoring & Logging for IaC Deployments

  Integrate logging and monitoring solutions to track Terraform execution in GitLab pipelines; Use Terraform output variables and logging modules for better infrastructure observability; Set up alerts for failed deployments, security violations, or infrastructure drift.

• Infrastructure Optimization & Cost Management

  Optimize resource utilization and cost efficiency through Terraform best practices; Implement auto-scaling configurations to adjust cloud resources based on demand; Leverage spot instances, reserved instances, or budget monitoring for cost savings.
