Deploy a VPC

The first step is to deploy a VPC. Follow the instructions in How to deploy a production-grade VPC on AWS to use module-vpc to create a VPC setup that looks like this:

We will use the Mgmt VPC to deploy our infrastructure deployment CD platform, since the infrastructure deployment platform is a management infrastructure that is designed to deploy to multiple environments.

After following this guide, you should have a vpc-mgmt wrapper module in your infrastructure-modules repo:

infrastructure-modules
  └ networking
    └ vpc-mgmt
      └ main.tf
      └ outputs.tf
      └ variables.tf

You should also have a corresponding live configuration in your infrastructure-live repo to deploy the VPC. For example, for your production environment, there should be a folder called production in the infrastructure-live repo that looks as follows:

infrastructure-live
  └ production
    └ terragrunt.hcl
    └ us-east-2
      └ prod
        └ networking
          └ vpc-mgmt
            └ terragrunt.hcl
