Automate Infrastructure Provisioning & Management

This standard mandates the automation of infrastructure provisioning and management to reduce dependencies on central teams for infrastructure requests.

1. Automate Infrastructure Provisioning & Management:

Reduce dependencies on central teams for infrastructure requests. This approach ensures that teams can provision and manage infrastructure independently.

• 1.1 Infrastructure as Code (IaC):
  • 1.1.1 On-Demand Provisioning:
    • Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) frameworks to enable on-demand provisioning.
    • Automate the execution of IaC scripts.
  • 1.1.2 IaC Management:
    • Automate the tracking of IaC deployments.
    • Implement IaC tutorials.
• 1.2 Self-Service Cloud Environments:
  • 1.2.1 Secure and Compliant Access:
    • Provide self-service access to secure, compliant, and pre-configured cloud environments.
    • Automate the provisioning of cloud environments.
  • 1.2.2 Environment Management:
    • Automate the tracking of cloud environment usage.
    • Implement environment feedback collection.
• 1.3 Infrastructure Scaling:
  • 1.3.1 Workload Demand Scaling:
    • Ensure teams can easily scale infrastructure up or down based on workload demands.
    • Automate the scaling of infrastructure.
  • 1.3.2 Scaling Management:
    • Automate the tracking of scaling activities.
    • Implement scaling tutorials.

By automating infrastructure management, organisations can reduce dependencies and improve efficiency.
