How to Quickly Improve Your Infrastructure as Code
The resources view in Spacelift gives you greater visibility into each and every resource. With this deep insight into resources, DevOps are able to gain an understanding of the lifecycle of each resource managed by Spacelift and document it, regardless of the technology used — Terraform, Terragrunt, Pulumi, or CloudFormation.

Alternative to Atlantis
Handling interdependencies between projects has always been Terraform’s Achilles’ heel and Atlantis is no different in that regard. The usual approach to this problem is adding another layer of abstraction in the form of a Terraform wrapper like Terragrunt. While this breaks the problem into smaller chunks, it’s only a partial solution achieved at a cost of locking yourself into another dependency.

Testing automated deploys
We use Terratest to do something similar. We use it within our CI/CD pipeline for testing Terraform modules before they are built and published in our registry, as well as use in a larger Terragrunt stack to perform more of an end to end test.

Terraform State File vs Data API Call

Terraform routine use of -target
Usually I use Terragrunt for this. It does have a learning curve, but it will take care of most of the boilerplate for you. It lets you use variables and generate providers and remote backends along with other helpful functions. It also supports dependencies between modules, so you can pass module outputs around, and it will run them in the correct order.

Terraform 1.0 Release
Have you tried Terragrunt [0]? It helps a lot with managing a set of related stacks. Still feels like a bandaid on a broken model, but it is what we have.

Regarding performance, last time I looked, Hashicorp's documentation implied there was no limit to the size of a Terraform stack. I think they meant theoretically in a science fiction universe where humanity had converted all of the sun's output to performing terraform plan and apply...
I've been using Terragrunt to keep my Terraform DRYU in a similar manner. It's a bit of a rethink in how you structure things but I've been happy so far.

Struggling to understand the basics — How to write 1 config and apply it to multiple GCP projects
Finish your Terraform code with all the parameters that you need as variables. This means in your example the Cloud Storage bucket. Then you can either start making some fancy Terraform code to change the project-id each time you run it or use Terragrunt as the wrapper to the Terraform code that you just made (you module) where you can specify a folder per customer, a variables files common to customers and one per customer and run everything from the top and have everything applied to all customers at the same time.
