The Multi-Container E-Commerce Platform is an advanced cloud computing project that combines Config maps and secrets and Services, built with Terraform. The project follows a cloud-native architecture where resources are provisioned, scaled, and managed as code, making it reliable, cost-effective, and easy to reproduce. It showcases professional cloud engineering techniques while delivering a complete, demo-ready platform.
Managing this workload on traditional infrastructure is slow, expensive, and hard to scale. Without a cloud platform built on Services and Terraform, there is no automated, resilient, and pay-per-use way to run the service reliably for growing demand.
This project applies advanced cloud engineering practices through Config maps and secrets, orchestrated with Terraform and Services. The system is designed for automation, observability, and cost control, with security and resilience built in. It delivers consistent, scalable results and can be extended to additional cloud services and regions.

Cloud-native system with Config maps and secrets and Services
Automated provisioning and scaling on demand
Observability with metrics, logs, and alerts
Security controls, encryption, and access management
Reusable cloud modules for related features
Cost-aware, documented, maintainable cloud architecture
The system follows a cloud-native architecture: the compute layer runs Config maps and secrets; the orchestration and logic layer uses Terraform and Services; and the data and storage layer persists state via Horizontal scaling. Shared IaC, security, and observability modules support all layers, keeping the platform automated, resilient, and easy to extend.
Set up cloud account, project, and infrastructure as code.
Provision core resources and networking for Config maps and secrets.
Implement the workload logic using Terraform and Services.
Add the data and storage layer via Horizontal scaling.
Wire up automation, monitoring, and cost controls.
Test scaling, failures, and security, then refine.
Document the architecture, run a demo, and prepare the viva report.
Architect cloud-native, scalable systems
Apply Helm chart packaging and Container security
Provision infrastructure with automation
Secure, monitor, and optimize cloud workloads
Present and defend a complete cloud project in viva
Add multi-cloud and hybrid deployment
