What will I build in this program?

You build the infrastructure for i27Helpdesk, a production-grade product that i27Academy runs, entirely as code. You design reusable modules, manage state and environments, provision the same product on AWS and Google Cloud, and automate it with GitHub Actions using keyless OIDC authentication.

What are the prerequisites?

A basic understanding of cloud computing and infrastructure concepts. Prior experience with a cloud provider such as AWS or Google Cloud is recommended.

Will this prepare me for the HashiCorp certification?

Yes. The curriculum is aligned with the HashiCorp Terraform Associate certification exam objectives.

Is Terraform included in the AWS and Google Cloud tracks?

Yes. Track 2 of the AWS Cloud Engineer / Architect and Google Cloud Engineer / Architect programs includes this Terraform program, together with the cloud track and its i27CoreHR project. Take this program on its own if you already work with a cloud provider and want to add Infrastructure as Code.

Your project

Build i27Helpdesk entirely as code

i27Helpdesk is a production-grade product that i27Academy runs. You write its infrastructure in Terraform and deploy the same codebase to AWS and Google Cloud, the way a platform team would.

Step 01
Design reusable modules
Break i27Helpdesk into network, compute, and data modules you can reuse on any cloud.
Step 02
Manage state and environments
Remote backends, locking, and separate dev and prod environments, the way teams run it.
Step 03
Provision on AWS and Google Cloud
Stand up the same product on each cloud and see what changes between providers.
Step 04
Automate with GitHub Actions
Run plan and apply from GitHub Actions, authenticating to the cloud with OIDC instead of long-lived keys, so every change is reviewed and repeatable.

Best value

Want cloud and Terraform together?

Track 2 of our AWS and Google Cloud programs includes this entire Terraform program, plus the cloud track and its i27CoreHR project. Two real products, for less than taking them separately.
