Infrastructure as Code

This project is a skeleton for infrastructure as code implementations. You can use it to quickly bootstrap your own infrastructure as code projects.

The seed contains a sample infrastructure as code implementation which includes,

• Git for versioning infrastructure as code
• Terraform, CloudFormation, YAML and Python Scripts for infrastructure provisioning
• Puppet/Chef for configuration management
• Docker for container management
• Fabric/Capistrano for remote execution and deployment
• Vagrant for local testing and development using Puppet/Chef solo
• Jenkins for continuous integration of infrastructure
• A hello world example to provision and configure a Nodejs application
