The DevOps Odyssey: Fully Automating OCI App Deployment with Terraform, Ansible, and Docker

Introduction: The Engineer's Drive for Automation

As a DevOps engineer, I thrive on full‑stack automation—turning repetitive, error‑prone deployments into push‑button, ultra‑reliable workflows.
I recently challenged myself to get Job Winner, an opensource full‑stack app (Spring Boot + React), live on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) in less than 15 minutes from a cold start.
But the real goal wasn't speed alone—it was idempotence: every run of the pipeline should converge the system to the exact same, secure, HTTPS‑enabled state without manual touch‑points.

Building a Reusable Terraform Static Site Module with CloudFront, S3, and Route 53

Overview

A common need in modern cloud infrastructure is hosting static websites — whether it's marketing sites, documentation portals, or Single Page Applications (SPAs) built with React, Vue, or Svelte.

At first, the AWS building blocks for this are fairly simple:

S3 for object storage
CloudFront for CDN
ACM for HTTPS
Route 53 for DNS

But quickly, managing this setup by hand or duplicating configs across environments (prod, staging, QA) becomes painful:

Too many copy/paste Terraform files
Hard to apply consistent policies
Complicated to manage uploads (especially when some sites are CI/CD and some are manual content sites)

Setting Up Turborepo Remote Cache with S3 and GitHub Actions

Setting up a production-grade remote cache for Turborepo using self hosted remote cache with AWS S3 and Lambda helps improve monorepo performance, especially in CI/CD pipelines like GitHub Actions. Below is a modular and generic Terraform setup using variables for easy customization.
