Today ControlMonkey is pleased to announce that we have reinforced our Terraform Import Engine with the ability to Import AWS Code Pipeline resources to Terraform.
AWS CodePipeline is a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). It automates the build, test, and deployment phases of your release process for software applications.
AWS CodePipeline is commonly used to automate the software release process, ensuring that code changes are tested and deployed quickly and consistently, thus reducing manual errors and speeding up the delivery of features to end-users. It promotes best practices such as infrastructure as code, version control, and automated testing.
ControlMonkey now supports one-click Terraform Import of the following Code Pipeline resources:
Pipeline (aws_codepipeline)
Custom Action Type (aws_codepipeline_custom_action_type)
Webhook (aws_codepipeline_webhook)
Managing AWS CodePipeline with Terraform offers several benefits:
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Terraform allows you to define your CodePipeline configuration in code, which can be version-controlled, reviewed, and managed just like your application code.
This enables you to maintain consistency and reproducibility in your pipeline configurations. - Consistency: With Terraform, you can ensure that your CodePipeline setups are consistent across different environments (e.g., development, staging, production) by using the same Terraform configuration with appropriate variables for each environment.
- Versioning and Rollbacks: Since Terraform configurations are version-controlled, you can track changes made to your CodePipeline setups over time and easily roll back to previous versions if needed. This helps in maintaining a history of changes and troubleshooting any issues that may arise.
Do you have Code Pipeline resources that you would like to shift to Terraform?
Feel free to book an intro meeting with us to learn more!
