Ghost Blog Site Deployment with Terraform, AWS, and Docker
This project provides an automated deployment solution for setting up a Ghost blog site using Terraform, AWS (Amazon Web Services), and Docker. It aims to simplify the process of provisioning the necessary infrastructure and deploying the Ghost blogging platform within a Docker container on AWS.
- Infrastructure provisioning: Utilize Terraform to automate the creation and configuration of AWS resources required for the Ghost blog site.
- Containerized deployment: Utilize Docker to encapsulate the Ghost blogging platform, enabling easy portability and scalability.
- High availability: Leverage AWS services to ensure high availability and fault tolerance of the blog site.
- Customizability: Easily configure and modify the deployment parameters to fit specific requirements.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Infrastructure setup is defined as code using Terraform, enabling version control and reproducibility.
- Terraform: Infrastructure provisioning tool
- AWS: Cloud platform for hosting the infrastructure
- Docker: Containerization platform
- Ghost: Open-source blogging platform
