Increased operational efficiency
Zero-touch operations improve increased operational efficiency by automating manual tasks, reducing human effort, and minimizing the risk of errors. In this section, we’ll explain how it enhances operational efficiency with clear examples, along with the associated risks and effort required for implementation and maintenance. Based on the risks and effort highlighted, we can draw a conclusion on the ROI.
Automated database provisioning
Let’s look at this in further detail:
- Implementation:
- Use IaC tools such as Terraform to define and provision databases automatically
- Define the desired database configurations, including instance size, storage, and access controls, in the Terraform code
- Risks:
- Misconfigurations in the IaC templates or improper handling of sensitive data may result in security vulnerabilities or operational issues. It is crucial to follow best practices, conduct regular code reviews, and perform thorough testing...
