Terraform Managed Service
Terraform is the industry standard for infrastructure as code, but writing and maintaining Terraform at scale requires expertise in module design, state management, CI/CD integration, and drift detection. Anubiz Labs provides managed Terraform services — we write, maintain, and operate your Terraform codebase so your infrastructure stays reproducible, auditable, and secure.

We implement, you ship. Async, documented, done in days.
Terraform Module Development
We develop reusable Terraform modules for your infrastructure components — servers, networks, databases, load balancers, DNS records, and monitoring configurations. Each module follows HashiCorp best practices with proper input validation, output declarations, and documentation. Modules are versioned in your Git repository and consumed through a private module registry.
Module design emphasizes composability. A server module handles compute provisioning. A networking module handles VPC, subnets, and security groups. A database module handles instance creation, replication, and backup configuration. These modules compose together to build complete environments, and changes to one module propagate consistently across all environments that use it.
State Management and Security
Terraform state contains sensitive information — resource IDs, IP addresses, passwords, and connection strings. We configure remote state backends with encryption at rest, state locking to prevent concurrent modifications, and access controls that restrict state reading and writing to authorized CI/CD pipelines and personnel.
State is segmented by environment and component. Production and staging state files are completely separate, eliminating the risk of a staging change affecting production. Large infrastructures are decomposed into state files per service or team, reducing blast radius and improving plan execution speed. State imports and moves are handled carefully with change review and backup.
CI/CD Pipeline Integration
We build Terraform CI/CD pipelines that run plan on every pull request, post the plan output as a PR comment for human review, run security and compliance scans, and require approval before applying changes. This workflow ensures that no infrastructure change goes unreviewed and that every change is traceable to a Git commit.
Pipeline stages include formatting validation, provider and module initialization, plan generation, policy-as-code evaluation with Sentinel or OPA, cost estimation, and gated apply. Failed security checks block the merge. Successful applies are tagged in Git with the applied plan hash for auditability. The pipeline is the only path to infrastructure changes — no manual terraform apply from laptops.
Drift Detection and Remediation
Infrastructure drift — when actual resource configuration diverges from the Terraform state — is a constant operational risk. We run scheduled drift detection that compares real infrastructure against declared state and reports any discrepancies. Drift is classified as intentional (manual hotfixes that need to be codified) or accidental (unauthorized changes that should be reverted).
Drift remediation follows a defined process. Intentional changes are incorporated into the Terraform codebase through pull requests. Accidental changes are reverted through terraform apply. Every drift event is documented with the affected resource, the detected change, and the resolution. Over time, drift frequency decreases as we close the operational gaps that allow it.
