🧪 Terraform IaC and Microsoft Azure

I am presenting here a relatively rare example of a modern ICT System and Public Cloud related thesis authored by UAS student. This kind of thesis can serve as a strong baseline for technically capable and self-directed individuals working with complex systems and public cloud environments. Work done in scope of this thesis is an excellent demonstration of what a motivated learner can achieve by focusing on practical, job-market-relevant skills.

Keywords: Terraform, Azure, Ghost, NGinx, MySQL, Git, Markdown

The thesis itself is written in Finnish, while the resulting product is available in English.

This showcased thesis highlights the ability to:

Start from a clean slate
Work independently without relying heavily on external expertise
Analyze complex systems
Design and implement Infrastructure as Code solutions in a Microsoft Azure environment

From modern DevOps and Cloud enabled professional perspective this practical learning project covers many important aspects from what The Universe expects from individuals these days:

Complex System Architectural Analysis
POC: Complex System Co-hosted ClickOps Setup
POC: Complex System Isolated 3 VM ClickOps Setup
Git Version Control Usage
Complex System Architectural Design and Documentation
MVP: Complex System Isolated 3 VM IaC Setup

This type of product could be further developed by another learner towards including some additional angles. Mentioned additional angles are by no means shortcomings in the showcased thesis, but rather additional angles that can be covered in any technical Cloud or DevOps related Bachelor’s Thesis. Individuals who want to develop themselves in scope of their Bachelor’s Thesis could cover additional angles such as:

Public Complex System Deployment (Domain, TLS)
Configure and Use Complex System to Deliver ICT Service
Separate IaC (Terraform) and Configuration Management (Ansible)
Deploy Complex System with CI/CD Pipeline
Investigate and Implement Scalability on Web and App Layers
Investigate and Leverage Database PaaS
Implement Cost Observability (Dashboard, Notification Channel in Slack, Alerts)
Implement Resource Metrics Observability (Dashboard, Notification Channel in Slack, Alerts)

This showcased project highlights a meaningful learning journey and comes highly recommended for anyone seeking growth in modern ICT systems and cloud technologies. Project is showcased with the permission from the author of the thesis.
