Master EKS Clusters, Terraform & ArgoCD with this Comprehensive DevOps Tutorial!

Hey, DevOps enthusiasts! 👋

I recently created an in-depth tutorial covering the entire process of creating and managing an EKS cluster using Terraform modules and installing ArgoCD on it. I wanted to share it with you all, as I believe it can be a valuable resource for those looking to enhance their DevOps skills.

In this tutorial, you'll learn:

How to set up an EKS cluster with Terraform modules
Best practices for managing your infrastructure
Installing and configuring ArgoCD for seamless deployment
And finally, how to properly destroy the cluster once you're done
Whether you're new to DevOps or an experienced pro, I'm confident that you'll find this tutorial useful and informative!

🎥 Check out the video here: https://youtu.be/zgNs2xz1eLk

I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or any questions you might have. Let's discuss and learn from each other!

Terraform AWS Infrastructure Framework (Multi-Env, Name-Based, Scales by Config)

🚀 Excited to share my latest open-source project: a Terraform framework for AWS focused on multi-environment infrastructure management.

After building and refining patterns across multiple environments, I open-sourced a framework that helps teams keep deployments consistent across dev / qe / prod.

The problem:
- Managing AWS infra across dev / qe / prod usually leads to:
- Configuration drift between environments
- Hardcoded resource IDs everywhere
- Repetitive boilerplate when adding “one more” resource
- Complex dependency management across modules

The solution:
A workspace-based framework with automation:

- ✅ Automatic resource linking — reference resources by name, not IDs. The framework resolves and injects IDs automatically across modules.
- ✅ DRY architecture — one codebase for dev / qe / prod using Terraform workspaces.
- ✅ Scale by configuration, not code — create unlimited resources WITHOUT re-calling modules. Just add entries in a .tfvars file using plain-English names (e.g., “prod_vpc”, “private_subnet_az1”, “eks_cluster_sg”).

What’s included:
- VPC networking (multi-AZ, public/private subnets)
- Internet gateway, NAT gateway, route tables, EIPs
- Security groups + SG-to-SG references
- VPC endpoints (Gateway & Interface)
- EKS cluster + managed node groups

Real example:
# terraform.tfvars (add more entries, no new module blocks)
eks_clusters = {
prod = {
my_cluster = {
cluster_version = "1.34"
vpc_name = "prod_vpc" # name, not ID
subnet_name = ["pri_sub1", "pri_sub2"] # names, not IDs
sg_name = ["eks_cluster_sg"] # name, not ID
}
}
}
# Framework injects vpc_id, subnet_ids, sg_ids automatically

https://github.com/rajarshigit2441139/terraform-aws-infrastructure-framework

Looking for:
- Feedback from the community
- Contributors interested in IaC patterns
- Teams standardizing AWS deployments

Question:
What are your biggest challenges with multi-environment Terraform? How do you handle cross-module references today?
