The end result of of this lab experiment will be a fully functioning web infrastructure, composed by several back-end web servers (implemented with NGINX) and one front-end Load Balancer (implemented with haproxy). We will use Terraform to Provision the infrastructure in Google Cloud Platform (GCP), together with the Ansible Configuration Management tool for configuring the compute instances of the infrastructure, install in those instances all of the required applications and packages, deploy the corresponding customized configuration files, and start the respective services.
