summary

GoPay moves 2,500+ self‑managed databases under a template-driven Git workflow that uses Terraform + Ansible + GitLab CI to render commits, run plan/apply pipelines, and push secrets to Vault, with provisioning taking about 5–10 minutes. Templates expose JSON schemas for developer forms, auto-create Grafana dashboards and logging, and enable mass updates (Ubuntu hardening, SSH migration). Migration uses Terraform import to onboard ~2,100 instances in four months; full automatic reconcile is still in progress.
