Název: Formalizing Infrastructure-as-Code Design Patterns for Cloud Deployment Automation.
Autoři: Soni, Navin
Zdroj: Journal of Computer Science & Technology Studies; 2025, Vol. 7 Issue 10, p67-78, 12p
Témata: SCALABILITY, CLOUD computing, MAINTAINABILITY (Engineering), AUTOMATION, CONFIGURATION management, INFORMATION technology security
Abstrakt: Infrastructure-as-Code represents a transformative paradigm in modern cloud operations, enabling organizations to manage computing infrastructure through machine-readable definition files while addressing critical scalability, security, and maintainability requirements. The formalization of IaC design patterns emerges as essential for optimizing cloud deployment automation workflows across enterprise environments. Through systematic categorization, five fundamental pattern categories establish comprehensive frameworks for scalable cloud deployment systems: Modular Composition Patterns enabling component abstraction and hierarchical organization, Parameterization Patterns facilitating dynamic configuration management, Dependency Isolation Patterns minimizing inter-component coupling, Environment Replication Patterns ensuring multi-environment consistency, and Rollback Patterns providing systematic recovery mechanisms. Implementation strategies encompass declarative template architecture selection, environment drift detection mechanisms, change preview capabilities, fail-fast error detection, and maintainability enhancement protocols. Real-world case studies demonstrate substantial improvements in deployment reliability, reduced configuration errors, enhanced team productivity, and streamlined operational efficiency. Platform engineering teams, DevOps practitioners, and Machine Learning infrastructure specialists benefit significantly from structured pattern frameworks, achieving transformative improvements in infrastructure provisioning efficiency and automated workflow implementation. Security pattern integration ensures consistent application of best practices while comprehensive testing frameworks validate infrastructure reliability across deployment environments.
