Techmaster Terraform Milestone

Milestone project

Project Overview:

In this project, you will use Terraform to provision the necessary AWS resources and deploy Apache Superset, a modern data exploration and visualization platform. Apache Superset will be deployed on an EC2 instance, with an RDS instance as the backend database.

Project steps

• Step 1: Set up the Terraform project
  • Create a new directory for your Terraform project.
  • Initialize a new Terraform configuration using the terraform init command.
• Step 2: Define AWS resources
  • Create a new Terraform configuration file (e.g., main.tf) and define the necessary AWS resources:
  • VPC: Create a new VPC with appropriate subnets and security groups.
    • VPC lab
  • EC2 Instance: Provision an EC2 instance to host Apache Superset.
    • EC2 LAB
  • RDS Instance: Set up an RDS instance as the backend database for Apache Superset.
    • Do you own about create RDS aurora ...
• Step 3: Provision AWS resources
  • Use the terraform plan command to review the execution plan and verify the resources to be created.
  • Apply the changes using the terraform apply command to provision the defined AWS resources.
• Step 4: Deploy Apache Superset
  • SSH into the provisioned EC2 instance and install the necessary dependencies.
  • Download and install Apache Superset.
  • Configure Apache Superset to connect to the RDS instance as the backend database.
• Step 5: Access and test Apache Superset
  • Obtain the public IP or DNS of the EC2 instance.
  • Access the Apache Superset web interface using a web browser.
  • Create a sample dashboard or explore available datasets to ensure Apache Superset is functioning correctly.
  • Using sample data set bellow:
• Step 6: Enhance
  • Back to step 4, can we do it better wit Packer
  • Rework step 4, apply packer
  • Reimplement the step 4 with Packer + Terraform
