1. Why We Need This Use Case

Configuring a Google Cloud Storage (GCS) bucket using Terraform is essential for:

  • Infrastructure as Code: Automates the creation and management of cloud resources, ensuring consistency and reproducibility.

  • Version Control: Allows you to manage infrastructure changes using version control systems like Git.

  • Scalability and Flexibility: Facilitates easy modification and scaling of resources as your needs evolve.

  • Efficiency: Streamlines the process of provisioning and managing cloud storage, reducing manual effort and the potential for errors.

2. When We Need This Use Case

This use case is applicable when:

  • Infrastructure Automation: You need to automate the creation and management of GCS buckets as part of a broader infrastructure deployment.

  • Consistency Across Environments: Ensuring consistent configuration of storage buckets across different environments (development, staging, production).

  • Integration with CI/CD Pipelines: When integrating infrastructure provisioning into CI/CD pipelines for automated deployments.

  • Versioned Management: Managing changes to storage configurations and maintaining a history of modifications.
