Deployment & DevOps

Migrates legacy cloud infrastructure to GitOps workflows using standardized Terraform, Ansible, and Azure DevOps patterns.

This skill provides a structured framework for transitioning manual AWS and Azure environments into Infrastructure as Code (IaC). It offers specialized guidance for migrating kOps clusters to Amazon EKS, importing existing resources via Terraform 1.5+ blocks, and implementing consistent tagging strategies. By enforcing best practices like flat directory structures, explicit provider pinning, and secure state management, this skill ensures that infrastructure migrations are repeatable, documented, and integrated into Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines.
