Starting situation
Grupo Zeta conveyed to us the need to improve the performance of the platform and increase the availability of the platform due to the increase in content they had proposed in the short term. They also needed to deploy one of the native AWS services for their application.
The goal

The solution
As a starting point for platform change, IaaC is used in Terraform to ensure platform availability, the following measures are carried out:
- Creating specific Terraform modules
- Using immortal instances to ensure full availability
- Using Packer for sealed imaging
- Creating custom monitoring scripts that enable automation of actions on infrastructure
