Hybrid Cloud

A tool like Terraform, which makes the process of maintaining multiple clouds easier also provides a document or the code to stimulate or deploy the same environment on the other system the way we did it on our personal platform. It not only handles multiple platforms but also automates a number of tasks, which were previously done manually.

Imagine launching an EC2 instance, then creating an extra EBS volume and attaching it to the instance, was like a long and time-taking task but Terraform allows us to do this by writing a few lines of code and run it and as the output you get all the tasks complete within seconds. Terraform is a smart tool capable of fetching the details of the instance launched, its IP and location for the EBS to be launched and attached without any human involvement.

Elastic IP is an important concept of reserving a particulate public IP for your EC2 instance so that the allotted public IP remains the same even after you start the OS once it was stopped.

Security of data is a concern for everyone, an Encrypted Hard Disk can resolve the problem of security since nobody can peek inside your disk and interfere with your personal data.

Happy learning!
