📊 Monitoring Tools Infrastructure Setup

Overview

This repository contains Terraform and Ansible configurations for setting up a scalable monitoring infrastructure in AWS. It automates the deployment and configuration of Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK Stack, ensuring efficient system monitoring, logging, and visualization.

🚀 Features

✅ Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform
✅ Automated provisioning with Ansible
✅ AWS Route 53 DNS configuration for service access
✅ Secure IAM roles and policies for access control
✅ High availability and scalability setup

📦 Components

1️⃣ Terraform Configuration

• Creates EC2 instances for monitoring tools
• Sets up networking (VPC, subnets, security groups)
• Configures Route 53 DNS for service accessibility

2️⃣ Ansible Playbooks

• Installs and configures Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK Stack
• Defines user roles and permissions
• Automates monitoring tools setup

🏗️ Deployment Steps

Prerequisites

• AWS account with necessary permissions
• Terraform & Ansible installed locally
• Access to a Git repository for configurations

Steps

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/startup-public-repo/monitor-tools-infra.git
   cd monitoring-tools-infra

2. Initialize Terraform:

   terraform init  
   terraform apply -auto-approve  

3. Run Ansible playbooks:

   ansible-playbook setup-monitoring.yml  

📊 Monitoring Setup Details

🔹 Prometheus: Collects and stores metrics for system monitoring
🔹 Grafana: Visualizes metrics with custom dashboards
🔹 ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana): Aggregates and analyzes logs

🔒 Security Best Practices

⚡ IAM Role-based Access: Ensure limited access to monitoring tools
⚡ SSL/TLS Encryption: Secures communication between services
⚡ Network Access Controls: Restrict access via security groups
