Create a base lab environment in GCP for running Gremlin, Sysdig, OPA Gatekeeper for testing and learning Chaos Engineering.
- Snyk provides security scanning, secret scanning, policy as code tests, CVE scanning, Licence checks, Dependancy/Version Management, and code scanning
- Sysdig is SEIM and HIDS
- Gremlin is our Chaos Engineering agent for fuzzy testing
- Disaster Recover is handled by treating the cluster as an ephemeral appliance and source of truth is the git repo and helm charts
- Terraform Cloud is our GitOps workflow for managing deployments of IaC and Applications via Helm charts
- GKE is our cloud of choice.
Some services would need to be setup before hand then one needs to pass these along as terraform varables
