If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Get inspired to explore the depths of the DevOps field. In todays rapidly transforming world, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has emerged as an effective approach to maintain, scale, and deploy software systems. This book offers a mixture of foundational IaC concepts and practical examples to give you hands-on experience.

You will first gain an understanding of DevOps culture as well as how to adapt to IaC. Introduction to Infrastructure as Code begins by reviewing the innovative features that DevOps in general, and IaC in particular, have to offer for adoption and growth for different verticals. With this solid base established, you will then learn the importance, processes, and outcome of building infrastructure solutions.

Authors Sneh Pandya and Riya Guha Thakurta then provide hands-on examples utilizing IaC platforms, open source tools, and essential considerations such as security, scalability, and deployments. Each chapter focuses on one vertical (i.e., foundations, architecture patterns, securing infrastructure, preparing for deployment), how it impacts the DevOps toolchain in a holistic manner, and how it can be used to build solutions specific to that vertical, with a detailed walkthrough of code, environments, and other tools.

After completing this book, youll have launched your own infrastructure solution through an open source stack consisting of platforms and tools such as Terraform, Chef, and Puppet.

What You Will Learn

  • Understand the fundamentals of DevOps and Infrastructure as Code
  • Prepare for the ever-evolving ecosystem of modular infrastructure and the needs of the future
  • Avoid potential pitfalls and breakdowns while working with infrastructure
  • Build scalable and efficient IaC solutions that work at a small, medium, and large scale in a real-life environment
  • Understand and be responsibly aware of security concerns related to the domain, and how to address them

Who Is This Book For

Beginners interested in building a career in DevOps as well as professionals looking to gain expertise and advance their career with greater knowledge of IaC. including Technical Product Managers, and Architects.

Introduction

The management of information technology systems using a declarative programming language is known as infrastructure as code. Tools like source code repositories, build servers, automated testing, DevOps pipelines, etc., are used to improve the quality of software engineering. A common practice is to handle infrastructure code in the same manner as application code. In todays rapidly transforming world, infrastructure as code (IaC) has emerged as a futuristic approach to maintain, scale, and deploy software systems. From small-scale products to enterprise-grade automation, the field has enormous numbers of opportunities for DevOps-focused solutions that can transform the industry.

This book is a balanced mix of fundamental understanding and hands-on experience. You will understand the importance of DevOps culture as well as how to adapt to IaC in your workplace. The beginning of the book helps conceptualize the futuristic goals that DevOps and particularly IaC has to offer for the adoption and growth in different verticals. With the solid base prepared, you will then learn the importance, processes, and outcome of building infrastructure solutions.

This book is aimed at beginners interested in building a career in DevOps as well as existing professionals looking to gain expertise and advance in their careers with a mastery of IaC. This book simplifies jargon for businesspeople and decision-makers, including technical product managers, architects, and anyone who aims to shape and scale their infrastructure to provide better products and services to customers.

You will learn the following:

  • The fundamentals of DevOps and IaC

  • The ever-evolving ecosystem of modular infrastructure and the needs of the future

  • How to avoid potential pitfalls and breakdowns while working with infrastructure

  • How to build scalable and efficient IaC solutions that work on a small, medium, and large scale in a real-life environment

  • How to understand and be responsibly aware of the security concerns related to the domain and how to address them
