Infrastructure as Code, Patterns and Practices: With examples in Python and Terraform

Use the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) approach to automate, test, and streamline infrastructure for mission-critical applications.

In Essential Infrastructure as Code youwill learn how to:
Optimize infrastructure for modularity and isolate dependenciesTest infrastructure configurationMitigate, troubleshoot, and isolate failed infrastructure changesCollaborate across teams on infrastructure developmentUpdate infrastructure with minimal downtime using blue-green deploymentsScale infrastructure systems supporting multiple business unitsUse patterns for provisioning tools, configuration management, and image buildingDeliver secure infrastructure configuration to productionEssential Infrastructure as Code teaches you how to automate software infrastructure by capturing your desired configurations as a set of scripts.Youll learn how to create, test, and deploy infrastructure components in a way thats easy to scale and share across an entire organization. While the patterns and techniques are tool agnostic, youll appreciate the easy-to-follow examples in Python and Terraform. A system administrator or infrastructure engineer will learn essential software development practices for managing IaC, while developers will benefit from in-depth coverage of assembling and monitoring infrastructure as part of DevOps culture.
