Multi-Cluster Kubernetes Quick Delivery with IaC and GitOps
summary
Claim: platform provisioning drops from months to under two days by combining Terraform modules (AKS, DNS, storage, networking) with per-cluster Argo CD and a GitLab-driven GitOps flow. Built: Terraform provisions clusters and installs Argo CD/Helm, a secret-sync + template-resource operator registers clusters, and a logging/monitoring platform (Thanos/Prometheus/Grafana/OpenSearch) auto-onboards new clusters. Impact: eight-person DevOps team supports 17 teams, audits all changes as commits, recovers clusters faster, and scales to many regions with simultaneous Argo CD syncs.
