Ideas for Infrastructure Deployment:
Modular Terraform Files: Create modular Terraform files for different components of the infrastructure. This allows for flexibility in deploying only specific components if needed.
Support for Multiple Cloud Providers: Design Terraform configurations that can be used across multiple cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and GCP. This ensures flexibility and avoids vendor lock-in.
Secure Defaults: Ensure that the Terraform configurations have secure defaults. For instance, no open ports unless explicitly required, encrypted storage, and strict IAM roles and policies.
Scalability: Design the infrastructure to be scalable. This can be achieved using load balancers, auto-scaling groups, and distributed databases.
Backup and Recovery: Implement automated backup solutions and ensure there's a recovery plan in place.
Monitoring and Logging: Integrate cloud-native monitoring and logging solutions to keep an eye on the infrastructure's health and security.
Network Isolation: Use Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) and subnets to isolate different parts of the application, ensuring that only necessary services can communicate with each other.
Database Security: Ensure databases are in private subnets, have encryption at rest and in transit, and follow the principle of least privilege for database access.
Continuous Deployment: Integrate with CI/CD pipelines to ensure smooth deployments and updates.
