Cloud Infrastructure Automation Project

This project automates the setup and deployment of a cloud-based infrastructure using Terraform, AWS, and Python. It provisions resources such as VPCs, EC2 instances, RDS databases, S3 buckets, and Lambda functions, and generates a visual architecture diagram for documentation.

Features

• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Uses Terraform to provision and manage cloud resources.
• Automated Deployment: Scripts for configuring EC2 instances, connecting to RDS, and setting up S3 buckets.
• Serverless Functions: Includes a Python-based Lambda function for event-driven tasks.
• Visual Documentation: Generates a visual architecture diagram using the diagrams library.
• Version Control: All configurations and scripts are stored in a GitHub repository for easy collaboration and tracking.

Project Components

1. Terraform Configuration:

   • Provisions a VPC, subnets, security groups, and other AWS resources.
   • Sets up EC2 instances and connects them to an RDS database.

2. EC2 Configuration:

   • Installs necessary dependencies on EC2 instances.
   • Configures connections to the RDS database.

3. S3 Storage:

   • Configures an S3 bucket for static file hosting and backups.

4. Lambda Function:

   • A Python-based Lambda function with proper IAM permissions for event-driven tasks.

5. Architecture Diagram:

   • A Python script that generates a visual diagram of the infrastructure using the diagrams library.

6. GitHub Repository:

   • Stores all project files, configurations, and scripts for version control.

Prerequisites

• AWS Account: An active AWS account with necessary permissions.
• Terraform: Installed and configured on your local machine.
• Python 3.6 or higher: Required for running the diagram generation script.
• Git: For version control and collaboration.
