Deployment patterns with Terraform and GitHub Actions for public and private infrastructure

The session aims to introduce
1. VCS workflow with AWS Dynamic Credentials
2. CLI based workflow :
2.a : GitHub actions structure/deployment templates
2.b : Trunk based with feature flags using GitHub environments and variables.
2.c : On-demand workflows for deploying to higher lifecycle environments.
2.d : HCP Terraform components to consider for application and platform teams
2.e : Deployment into private infrastructure using Cloud agents
3. AWS & AWSCC provider

Deploy your AI ( and non AI) workloads in AWS using Terraform AWS Cloud Control provider

We will look into the AWSCC Terraform provider to provision workloads to support AWS resources and feature coverage as soon as a week into the announcement.

Bake security and compliance into your automation

In today's rapidly evolving technology landscape, where infrastructure and applications are increasingly deployed through code-driven automation, the importance of incorporating security measures into this process cannot be overstated. As organizations embrace the power of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and streamlined deployment scripts, the potential for security vulnerabilities to slip through the cracks has grown exponentially. Traditional security approaches, relying on manual reviews and ad-hoc security checks, often struggle to keep pace with the speed and complexity of modern infrastructure deployments. This is where the integration of security into the automation process becomes vital. By proactively addressing security concerns within the code that defines the infrastructure, organizations can ensure that security is an inherent part of the development process, rather than an afterthought. We will explore some common themes around incorporating these in your organization from the IDE of a developer to your deployment pipeline.
