How To Dev

Introduction DevOps is a combination of development (Dev) and operations (Ops), aimed at uniting people, processes, and technology to enhance the software development lifecycle. Here are some key aspects of DevOps: Collaboration and Communication: DevOps fosters a culture where development, IT operations, quality engineering, and security teams work together seamlessly. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD): These practices automate the integration and delivery of code changes, ensuring faster and more reliable software releases. Infrastructure as Code (IaC): This approach involves managing and provisioning computing infrastructure through machine-readable scripts, rather than physical hardware configuration. Monitoring and Logging: Continuous monitoring and logging help teams to detect issues early and maintain system reliability. Automation: Automating repetitive tasks reduces errors and increases efficiency, allowing teams to focus on more strategic work. By impleme...

Introduction In the previous article, I introduced some basic concepts about Terraform , as well as the advantages of using Terraform . If you're not familiar with it yet, take a look to get some basic knowledge before diving into the next topics . In this article, I will guide you through writing Terraform files to deploy a Virtual Machine (VM) instance to the Google Cloud Provider . Creating a Service Account If you already have a Google Cloud account with the necessary permissions, you can log in to work with Terraform as I instructed in the previous article. However, if for some reason you can't log in, or if you need a better authentication method, you can create a Service Account to use. In simple terms, a Google Cloud account is allowed to create Service Accounts . Each Service Account is assigned roles , and each role has corresponding permissions allowing the Service Account to perform specific tasks based on permissions . To create a Service Account , use th...

Introduction to Terraform Terraform is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool developed by HashiCorp . It allows you to build, change, and version your infrastructure safely and efficiently. Here are some key features of Terraform : Human-Readable Configuration Files : Terraform lets you define both cloud and on-prem resources in human-readable configuration files that you can version, reuse, and share. Multi-Cloud Support : Terraform can manage infrastructure on multiple cloud platforms. Providers enable Terraform to work with virtually any platform or service with an accessible API. Lifecycle Management : The core Terraform workflow consists of three stages: Write : Define resources across multiple cloud providers and services. Plan : Terraform creates an execution plan describing what it will create, update, or destroy. Apply : On approval, Terraform performs the proposed operations in the correct order, respecting any resource dependencies. State Management : Terraform keeps track ...
