Automated AWS Infrastructure

AWS Terraform GitOps Bash Scripts Security Groups

Project Overview

This project focuses on the complete automation of AWS infrastructure provisioning. By utilizing maintainable Terraform modules, the system supports multi-region deployments with high availability and disaster recovery capabilities.

The primary goal was to eliminate manual console clicks, reduce configuration drift, and ensure strict compliance with security standards across all environments (Dev, Staging, Prod).

Architecture Details

  • VPC Design: Custom VPCs with public and private subnets, NAT Gateways for secure outbound traffic, and strict NACL configurations.
  • Modular Terraform: Reusable modules for EC2, RDS, and S3, ensuring standardized resource definitions across different teams.
  • State Management: Remote state storage in S3 with DynamoDB locking to prevent race conditions during collaborative updates.
  • Security: Implementation of least-privilege IAM roles and automated security group rules based on application needs.

Results

The automation reduced environment provisioning time from 2 days to under 45 minutes. Infrastructure drifts are automatically detected and reported daily, significantly improving system reliability and security posture.
