Infrastructure as Code

Infrastructure as Code (IAC) is the process of provisioning and managing infrastructure (VM/Storage/Network etc.) by means of using code / configuration files.

Terraform

Terraform is an open-source Infrastructure as code tool that can work with multiple cloud providers such as AWS, GCP, Azure etc.

Terraform Example

The goal is to be able to invoke a terraform call to provision an AWS EC2 instance, install and configure a web server, and run a simple, static website on the instance. My blog post has all the commands and detailed steps - https://executeoncommand.com/?p=1193

Pre-requisites:

Sign up for an AWS account & use free tier
Default Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
Default subnet in the above VPC

I believe by default you will get the above AWS components when you create an AWS account for the first time. If you don't see it in your AWS account, please use the below resources for the set up.
