PROJECT 01 / A THREE-PART IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
From Terraform
to GitOps on AWS.
Most of the platform setup is already in the code. Configure your environment, deploy it with Terraform, and connect application YAML through ArgoCD.
Start with Terraform View the repository ↗A platform another team can adapt.
I wanted to deploy applications through GitOps and explore Kubernetes on AWS. This project brings the infrastructure and platform components together in Terraform so teams can start from an existing implementation.
The series is aimed at DevOps teams preparing a company migration. It follows the actual entry points, variables, module outputs, Helm templates, and YAML supplied in the repository. The workflow is concrete: configure, plan, apply, then connect the application repository.
Prepare DNS and image storage.
Part 1 includes Route53 setup and ECR provisioning with Terraform.
Project references: Route53 wiki · ECR wiki.
One implementation. Three steps.
ALL PARTS AVAILABLEConfigure and Deploy with Terraform
Set the environment values, bootstrap state and ECR, then deploy the platform from the environment root or Taskfile.
What the Terraform Modules Build
Follow the resource wiring for Karpenter, ingress, DNS, certificates, ArgoCD, and storage. Change the source and verify the result.
Application YAML and the ArgoCD Handoff
Adapt the repository’s Application definition, connect workload YAML, and release or roll back through Git.
