Terraform

HCL2 solves a lot of the issues we were having.

Terraform Cloud also solves the encrypted/secure env var issues.

Terraform Modules

• consul
• nomad
• vault

HashiCorp now has full starter kits for a secure environment on AWS. If only they did this when this project was started, it would have saved me months of figuring out how to do it securely and integrated myself.

Consul, Vault, Nomad

The new versions support federation and automatic TLS, which was the most difficult part of this entire setup back when this project was being authored. Upgrading to them should save a lot of time.

Boundary

Boundary is a new project that simplifies ssh and access into the machines.
