# Our Tech Stack
|
||||
Leverage was built around the [AWS Well Architected Framework](https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/well-architected/) and it uses a stack that includes [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/), [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/), [Helm](https://helm.sh/) and other tools.
|
||||
|
||||
We are also adopters and supporters of Kubernetes and the Cloud Native movement, which should become self-evident as you keep exploring our technology stack.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why did we choose our tech stack?
|
||||
|
||||
??? info "Why AWS❓"
|
||||
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted
|
||||
cloud platform, offering over 200 fully featured services from data centers globally.
|
||||
Millions of customers—including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises,
|
||||
and leading government agencies—are using AWS to lower costs, become more agile,
|
||||
and innovate faster.
|
||||
|
||||
Build, Deploy, and Manage Websites, Apps or Processes On AWS' Secure, Reliable Network.
|
||||
AWS is Secure, Reliable, Scalable Services. HIPAA Compliant.
|
||||
Easily Manage Clusters. Global Infrastructure. Highly Scalable.

|
||||
??? info "Why WAF (Well Architected Framework)❓"
|
||||
AWS Well-Architected helps cloud architects to build secure, high-performing, resilient,
|
||||
and efficient infrastructure for their applications and workloads. Based on five pillars
|
||||
— operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost
|
||||
optimization — AWS Well-Architected provides a consistent approach for customers and
|
||||
partners to evaluate architectures, and implement designs that can scale over time.

|
||||
??? info "Why Infra as Code (IaC) & Terraform❓"
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Confidence:** A change breaks the env? Just roll it back. Still not working?
|
||||
Build a whole new env with a few keystrokes. IaC enables this.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Repeatability:** Allows your infra to be automatically instantiated, making it
|
||||
easy to build multiple identical envs.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Troubleshooting:** Check source control and see exactly what changed in the env.
|
||||
As long as you are diligent and don’t make manual envs changes, then IaC can be a game
|
||||
changer.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **DR:** Require the ability to set up an alternate env in a different DC or Region.
|
||||
IaC makes this a much more manageable prospect.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Auditability:**
|
||||
You will need to be able to audit both changes and access to an env, IaC gives you this
|
||||
right out of the box.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Visibility:** As an env expands over time, is challenging to tell what has been
|
||||
provisioned. In the #cloud this can be a huge #cost issue. IaC allows tracking your
|
||||
resources.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Portability:** Some IaC techs are #multicloud. Also, translating #Terraform from
|
||||
one cloud provider to another is considerably more simple than recreating your entire
|
||||
envs in a cloud-specific tool.
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Security:** See history of changes to your SG rules along with commit messages can
|
||||
do wonders for being confident about the security configs of your envs.
|
||||
|
||||
**Terraform** allows to codify your application infrastructure, reduce human error and
|
||||
increase automation by provisioning infrastructure as code.
|
||||
With TF we can manage infrastructure across clouds and provision infrastructure
|
||||
across 300+ public clouds and services using a single workflow.
|
||||
Moreover it helps to create reproducible infrastructure and provision consistent testing,
|
||||
staging, and production environments with the same configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
**Terraform** has everything we expect from a IaC framework: open source, cloud-agnostic
|
||||
provisioning tool that supported immutable infrastructure, a declarative language, and
|
||||
a client-only architecture.

||||
??? info "Why Organizations❓"
|
||||
AWS Organizations helps you centrally manage and govern your environment as you grow
|
||||
and scale your AWS resources. Using AWS Organizations, you can programmatically create
|
||||
new AWS accounts and allocate resources, group accounts to organize your workflows,
|
||||
apply policies to accounts or groups for governance, and simplify billing by using a
|
||||
single payment method for all of your accounts.

??? info "Why IAM and roles❓"
|
||||
AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) enables you to manage access to AWS services
|
||||
and resources securely. Using IAM, you can create and manage AWS users and groups,
|
||||
and use permissions to allow and deny their access to AWS resources.
|
||||
|
||||
- Integration and Fine-grained access control with almost every AWS service and
|
||||
its resources.
|
||||
- Multi-factor authentication for highly privileged users.

??? info "Why VPC❓"
|
||||
Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) is a service that lets you launch AWS
|
||||
resources in a logically isolated virtual network that you define. You have complete
|
||||
control over your virtual networking environment, including selection of your own IP
|
||||
address range, creation of subnets, and configuration of route tables and network
|
||||
gateways. You can use both IPv4 and IPv6 for most resources in your virtual private
|
||||
cloud, helping to ensure secure and easy access to resources and applications.
