Introduction

Manual cloud provisioning can be difficult to reproduce, review, and audit consistently. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) addresses this by describing the desired infrastructure in version-controlled configuration.

This project uses Terraform to deploy a reusable, security-conscious Amazon S3 bucket configuration on AWS. It demonstrates provider configuration, variables and outputs, reusable modules, Terraform state, controlled plan/apply/destroy workflows, AWS CLI verification, and automated Terraform checks with GitHub Actions.

The implementation focuses on practical infrastructure automation while keeping security controls and operational safety visible throughout the workflow.

Cost notice: This project provisions real AWS resources and is not guaranteed to be free. S3 storage, requests, and other account activity may incur charges.…
