Název: Using Terraform and Jenkins in Agile Sprints: Lessons in Iterative Infrastructure Delivery
Autoři: Ameh, Paul
Zdroj: International Journal of Science and Research Archive. 15:1677-1679
Informace o vydavateli: GSC Online Press, 2025.
Rok vydání: 2025
Témata: DevOps, Agile, Infrastructure as Code, Jenkins, Cloud Engineering, IT Project Management, Terraform, Continuous Delivery
Popis: The integration of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform and Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines like Jenkins within Agile sprint frameworks has revolutionized infrastructure delivery in cloud engineering. This paper presents a fictionalized but realistic qualitative case study of three Agile teams across different industries implementing Terraform and Jenkins to manage infrastructure iteratively within sprint cycles. Key benefits include accelerated provisioning, improved reliability, and enhanced team collaboration, while challenges such as skill gaps, pipeline fragility, and state management complexity were identified. The study offers actionable lessons and best practices, demonstrating how organizations can achieve effective infrastructure delivery aligned with Agile principles. The findings underscore the importance of cultural change, continuous learning, and strategic tooling in modern IT project management.
