Architecting AWS with Terraform Design Resilient and Secure Cloud Infrastructures with Terraform on Amazon Web Services
Description
Accelerate your business growth by employing Terraform for AWS projects with this comprehensive guide packed with practical implementation tips for start-ups, enterprises, and personal projects Key Features Learn Terraform on AWS from 12x AWS certified trainer Improve reusability and governance for large-scale Terraform projects Use infrastructure as code practices to fully automate AWS workloads Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook Book Description Infrastructure as code (IaC) and Terraform have become essential tools for managing cloud infrastructure and automating deployment processes. Mastering Terraform on AWS presents a step-by-step approach on how to master these tools and build a secure and scalable AWS infrastructure. The book starts with an introduction to patterns and anti-patterns of IaC and Terraform, explaining the common mistakes and pitfalls you must avoid. You'll then learn about the importance of planning and designing infrastructure projects in AWS and making informed decisions for projects in AWS Terraform. You'll find out how to implement Terraform in your projects and deploy serverless projects. Next, you'll be able to deploy containers in AWS with Terraform, exploring the best practices for Terraform IaC projects. You'll understand how you can leverage Terraform for enterprises, build Git workflows for IaC and Terraform projects, and automate deployment of Terraform projects. The last set of chapters will teach you how to govern AWS with Terraform and build a secure infrastructure. Finally, you'll discover how to achieve a perfect AWS infrastructure with Terraform. By the end of this book, you'll have gained a comprehensive understanding of the various aspects of Terraform and IaC, along with the knowledge required to build, manage, and deploy complex infrastructures on AWS. What you will learn Get to grips with Terraform frameworks and best practices Use Terraform providers and modules Develop your first AWS resource in Terraform Build an infrastructure project with Terraform Govern an infrastructure project in Terraform Deploy Terraform projects to AWS with CI/CD Who this book is for This book is for cloud and DevOps engineers, developers, and architects responsible for writing or designing infrastructure as code to deploy resources in AWS. You are expected to have a basic understanding of AWS and should have experience deploying resources through the user interface (UI).
