Implementing Azure IaC DevOps for Terraform Project: CI/CD with Azure DevOps 😎 blog by Antoine Fongang on medium As a DevOps Engineer at StipeSoft Company, our goal was to improve the efficiency and reliability of our infrastructure management. Our existing process involved manual configurations and deployments, leading to inconsistencies and delays. To solve these issues, we implemented Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform and automated our workflows using Azure DevOps. This project streamlined our deployment process, making it faster and more reliable. Project Overview: Objective: The primary objective was to automate the entire lifecycle of our infrastructure deployment, from code validation to resource provisioning, using Azure DevOps and Terraform. This included setting up Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) pipelines, ensuring secure code management, and achieving consistent and repeatable deployments across multiple environments. Azure IaC DevOps with Terraform Key Components: CI/CD Pipelines: Build Pipelines (Continuous Integration): Configured Azure Build Pipelines to automatically trigger on every commit to our GitHub repository. Integrated Terraform validations and automated testing within the build pipeline to ensure that only valid and error-free configurations proceed to the next stage. Release Pipelines (Continuous Delivery): Designed Azure Release Pipelines to deploy validated Terraform configurations to our development, staging, and production environments. Implemented approval gates and notifications to maintain control and visibility over the deployment process. 2. Terraform Configuration Management: Organized Terraform configuration files into a structured directory layout, promoting reusability and maintainability. Managed state files securely using Azure Storage, ensuring accurate tracking of infrastructure changes and preventing conflicts. 3. Azure DevOps Organization Setup: Established an Azure DevOps organization to centralize our project management and collaboration efforts. Utilized Azure Repos for version control, ensuring secure and efficient code collaboration among team members. 4. Infrastructure Deployment Automation: Leveraged Terraform to define and automate the provisioning of Azure resources, enabling quick and consistent environment setups. Adopted Terraform modules and workspaces to handle different environments and resource configurations systematically. 5. GitHub SSH Connection: Set up a secure SSH connection between Azure DevOps and our GitHub repository, ensuring encrypted and authenticated access to our codebase. Challenges and Solutions: Challenge: Ensuring consistency across multiple environments. checkout the blog ---> https://lnkd.in/gVP_WkC6
