πŸ—οΈ Infrastructure Setup

Prerequisites

# Required tools
- AWS Account with programmatic access
- Terraform >= 1.0
- AWS CLI >= 2.0
- Git >= 2.0
- SSH key pair for EC2 access

Backend Configuration (One-time Setup)

Before deploying the main infrastructure, set up the Terraform backend:

# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Analo/aws-scalable-ecommerce-platform.git
cd aws-scalable-ecommerce-platform

# 2. Setup Terraform backend (run once)
./scripts/setup-backend.sh

# 3. The script will create:
# βœ… S3 bucket for state storage with encryption
# βœ… DynamoDB table for state locking
# βœ… Backend configuration file

# 4. Outputs will show your backend configuration

πŸ” Why Centralized State Management?

  • πŸ”’ State Locking: Prevents concurrent modifications and conflicts
  • πŸ‘₯ Team Collaboration: Enables multiple developers to work safely
  • πŸ“¦ Centralized Storage: Single source of truth for infrastructure state
  • πŸ”„ Version History: Complete state file versioning and recovery
  • πŸ›‘οΈ Security: Encrypted storage with fine-grained access controls

⚑ Quick Deployment

# 1. Configure environment variables
cp terraform/terraform.tfvars.example terraform/terraform.tfvars
# Edit terraform.tfvars with your settings

# 2. Deploy infrastructure
./scripts/deploy.sh

# 3. Monitor deployment progress
./scripts/health-check.sh

# 4. Access your application
echo "πŸš€ Application URL: $(terraform output -raw application_url)"

πŸ§ͺ Testing & Validation

# Run comprehensive tests
./scripts/run-tests.sh

# Load testing
./scripts/load-test.sh

# Security validation
./scripts/security-scan.sh

# Cost analysis
./scripts/cost-analysis.sh
