The challenge

Implementing AWS with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) brings its own set of challenges, regardless of the specific tool used such as Terraform, AWS CloudFormation or Azure Resource Manager.

Some common challenges include

  • Complexity and learning curve
  • Managing state and drift
  • Abstraction and vendor lock-in
  • Dynamic and evolving cloud services
  • Testing and validation
  • Security and compliance
  • Collaboration and version control

To address these challenges, it is essential to invest in proper training, adopt best practices, leverage community resources, and stay up to date with cloud provider documentation and updates. Building a solid foundation in infrastructure as code principles and establishing clear processes for collaboration, testing, and state management can help mitigate these challenges and ensure successful implementation of infrastructure in the cloud.

The solution

TC2 selected Terraform – Terragrunt technology as a default IaC platform for implementing customer’s AWS infrastructure. The main reason behind the decision was Terraform’s cloud agnosticity where most customers need multicloud infrastructure with a common IaC CICD management.
In recent years TC2 developed and maintain >80 Terraform component modules for quick environment install, configuration and easy maintenance.
As the IaC technology became as a software to keep it customer standard, up-to-date with the latest AWS developments, it requires a standard SDLC (software development life cycle) management with Terraform component modules maintenance. Throughout the SDLC proper documentation, version control, and collaboration among devops team members are essential.
In AWS IaC based implementation projects, TC2 will deliver not only the infrastructure implementation, IaC code but extensive training to customer devops staff also for easy hand-over and operation/support to customer side.
