Day 0 Environment Creation

Day 0 Environment Creation

env0 works well for customers who already have infrastructure provisioned in the cloud. But what if you need to support infrastructure developers and still need the management layer that env0 provides? We refer to this process of creating new infrastructure through automation as “Day 0” environment creation. This post shows one such way of automating the creation of the env0 environment resources by using our TF provider and some shell magic.

Share outputs between IaC stacks

Share outputs between IaC stacks

As our codebase becomes more complex, it often becomes an issue to maintain one IaC stack for our entire deployment, and we might think of splitting our IaC stack into smaller, more manageable components, with the relevant IaC for the job. The question is how can we pass outputs between deployment stacks? Read on to learn more.

Plan and Apply on PR

Many organizations work almost exclusively in their VCS. For these types of GitOps-style workflows, having to change from their VCS to another platform to handle IaC deployments was both time consuming, and represented an unnecessary distraction. Now, with PR Comment Commands, DevOps engineering can seamlessly interact with their env0 IaC deployment and management platform without ever leaving GIT.

Why Observability tools are important when using IaC

In recent years, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has become an increasingly popular approach for managing cloud-based infrastructure—however, with the growing complexity of cloud architecture, it's challenging to monitor and debug issues in real-time, such as CPU spikes or number of requests.

Infrastructure as Code is a Creative Job

Some art forms are not appreciated for their aesthetic value, like music, or literature and poetry. Yet, some ways of sharing such artworks are with a written document, e.g. music sheets and lyrics pages for songs. These art forms evolved as well and new genres of the written word came to be. One of those genres is code.

How to Implement fine-grained Role-Based Access Control for Your Infrastructure as Code with Custom RBAC Roles

In a world where infrastructure is constantly changing and evolving, it's more important than ever to have tight controls over who can make what changes. Granular RBAC allows you to give each user only the permissions they need to do their job, nothing more. This reduces the potential attack surface of your infrastructure and helps to prevent breaking changes.
