It's worth apply the CFT (Cloud Foundation Toolkit) with terraform in an gcp org that is already running workloads?
If your company is k8s centric and the developers are most comfortable with k8s, you might want to focus more on something specific to k8s such as helm, or even if you don't get into helm you may want to use config connector in your yaml to manage GCP resources in an IaC compliant method. You can manage k8s resources with terraform, but if your developers are currently comfortable working directly with k8s you are going to see significant pushback getting them to add terraform as a middleware. You probably still want to manage your GKE clusters and VPCs with terraform since you can't really use config connector.

Ask HN: Have You Left Kubernetes?
Config Connector [1] is also an option in this space for GCP, it supports many GCP resources and thus far our experience with it has been largely positive.

As Argo CD momentum grows, Codefresh launches hosted GitOps
We use it heavily with GCP's Kubernetes Config Connector to provision architecture. It could similarly be used for Cloud Functions, etc. given a repo URL that GCP can access. GitOps + operator pattern is a pretty powerful mechanism to let k8s continuously seek state towards your ideal. https://cloud.google.com/config-connector/docs/overview

What should I learn to improve as a data engineer?
For K8s, we were using Cloud Composer to do it for us but wanted more fine control over CI/CD, so we decided to go with Airflow on K8s. That's all hosted in GKE now and deployed using ArgoCD with helm. This also led down the IaC rabbit hole which has been a ton of fun too. We use the GCP ConfigConnector resources for that which is a little challenging at first, but gets a lot easier as time goes on.

Best IaC platforms
Terraform is 90% of cloud IaC. But there are newer Kubernetes Operators like Config Connector that can create cloud specific resources.
- What is the story with Google Deployment Manager? Is Google going to abandon it at some point?
- Infra Provisioning, what do you guys use today?

K8s pods security in GCP
It works particularly well with Google Config Connector as then it's all just manifests.

Ask HN: Have You Left Kubernetes?
CI/CD pipeline is GitHub Actions which run SSH commands on our servers that execute deployment scripts: https://github.com/bugout-dev/spire/blob/main/deploy/deploy....
We use systemd to manage services.
We use Ansible to set up servers.
Our infrastructure spans AWS, Google Cloud, and servers in a datacenter.
