Infrastructure Management
Provisioning is only the first step.
Infrastructure Management in Biztraak covers the ongoing lifecycle of resources created by an infrastructure deployment: dependency tracking, provider outputs, deployment state, and the operational records emitted by that deployment.
Every resource provisioned by an Infra Deployment shows up as a component in the UI and on the Canvas. Dependencies are tracked automatically, so you always see how changes to one component flow into the others.
Day-2 Ops at a Glance
- Scaling: adjust compute, storage, or database capacity through the configured provider workflow.
- Secrets & Env Vars: manage project and deployment variables through the configured component workflow.
- Networking & Domains: review the networking, routing, and DNS outputs created by the provider deployment.
- Monitoring & Logs: inspect deployment logs and provider state recorded for the resource.
- Governance tracking: review infrastructure events emitted by the configured deployment.
- Controlled Deployments: use the rollout strategy configured for the workload.
Scaling
Horizontal Scaling
Increase or decrease instance counts for services, APIs, or workers.Vertical Scaling
Resize DBs, caches, or compute nodes for more power without redeploying everything.Auto-Scaling
Auto-scaling is not a platform-wide default. configure it in the provider workflow when that workflow exposes the required controls.
Provider-supported scaling actions are tracked as deployment updates in infra history and audit records.
Secrets & Environment Variables
Secrets and env vars are first-class citizens in Biztraak:
- Stored securely with encryption at rest and in transit.
- Auto-injected into infra deployments (IAM roles, DB creds) and runtime environments.
- Rotatable from the UI without needing to redeploy the entire project.
- Propagation through the dependency tree: outputs from one component (like a DB connection string) are stored as env vars and passed into dependent components automatically.
Networking & Domains
Biztraak manages connectivity across providers:
- VPC Management: update CIDR ranges, add/remove subnets.
- Routing Rules: connect services internally or expose endpoints externally.
- Security Groups / Firewalls: adjust inbound/outbound rules without tearing down infra.
- Provider connectivity: connect networks through the provider paths exposed by the selected workflow.
- Domain Management: bind domains to review, staging, or production environments.
- TLS Certificates: managed by default, or bring your own certificates.
Monitoring & Logs
Each component surfaces:
- Deployment logs
- Infra state changes
- Metrics (CPU, memory, requests, errors)
- Compliance events
Logs and metrics exposed by the selected workflow are visible in the UI. its recorded events contribute to the audit trail.
Deployment Strategies
Biztraak supports deployment strategies tailored to workload type:
Blue/Green web-service workflow
Stand up a new version alongside the existing one, run health checks, then flip traffic to the new environment.- The configured container deployment path provides traffic switching and failure or alarm rollback.
Static-site traffic updates
Static-site deployment behavior depends on the specific provider template. this is not a universal instant-swap or automatic-reversion guarantee.
Compliance & Governance
- Audit Logs: infrastructure events exposed by the selected workflow are recorded with who/what/when.
- Policy Checks (when configured): may enforce governance gates before infra updates apply.
- Evidence collection: gather configuration data exposed by the selected workflow for internal, customer, or governance review.
⚠️ Custom Terraform templates do not inherit the default compliance context. Documentation, evidence collection, and audit coverage depend on events exposed by the selected workflow. Use the GRC Add-On for its documentation and evidence-collection workflows.
Roadmap
- Git-Backed Infra Management: manage infra updates via Git commits, with UI kept in sync.
- Policy-As-Code: define compliance and cost rules that block unsafe updates.
- Cross-Provider Networking: built-in service mesh for multi-cloud applications.
- Expanded Deployment Strategies: support for canary, rolling, and scheduled rollouts in addition to blue/green and instant.
Why infra management matters
- Secure: changes exposed by the selected workflow can be tracked and reviewed through its records.
- Provider-specific: use the workflow exposed for the selected provider and workload.
- Flexible: manage day-2 operations from the UI and configured provider workflows. Git-backed management remains a roadmap item.
- Review-friendly: the selected workflow’s logs, metrics, and evidence stay attached to current infrastructure state.
Next steps
- Infra Deployments → how infra gets provisioned initially
- Deployments → how code runs on top of infra
- Compliance → see how infra changes fit into audits
Biztraak makes supported infrastructure workflows more dependency-aware and reviewable, so you can manage cloud resources with clearer operational context.
