This project sets up a cloud infrastructure for a website using Terraform and AWS as provider. The infrastructure includes the following components:
The VPC is set up using the terraform-aws-modules/vpc/aws module. It includes public and private subnets across multiple availability zones, NAT gateways, and DNS hostnames. The configuration for the VPC can be found in vpc.tf.
EC2 instances are set up with an autoscaling group and a security group that allows HTTP ingress. The configuration for the EC2 instances can be found in asg.tf.
An S3 bucket is used to store media files. Files in the uploads/ directory are uploaded to the bucket. The configuration for the S3 bucket can be found in s3.tf.
A CloudFront distribution is set up to serve the website and the S3 media bucket. The configuration for the CloudFront distribution can be found in cloudfront.tf.
A Web Application Firewall (WAF) is set up for rate limiting requests to the CloudFront distribution. The configuration for the WAF can be found in waf.tf.
Various variables are used to configure the infrastructure, such as the AWS region, domain name, and S3 bucket prefix. These can be found in variables.tf.
To set up the cloud infrastructure, you will need to have Terraform installed. You can download Terraform from the official website.
To install the required Terraform modules, run the following command:
terraform initTo create the cloud infrastructure, run the following command:
terraform applyTo destroy the cloud infrastructure, run the following command:
terraform destroy
