Methodology: Hardened by Design & DevSecOps Standards Engine: Pulumi + Python (Infrastructure as Code)
This repository implements a production-ready AWS infrastructure focused on the Service Trinity (Logs, Metrics, Tracing) with a zero-trust networking approach.
Deployed via Pulumi in under 30 seconds, this stack enforces:
- Private-First VPC: Isolated subnets without Internet Gateway (IGW) exposure.
- FinOps-Centric Tracing: AWS X-Ray sampling rules at 5% to balance visibility and cost.
- Automated Observability: Centralized CloudWatch Dashboards and Log Groups with 30-day retention.
- Network Isolation: No public IP mapping for resources.
- Traceability: Sampling rules labeled with
Standard: DevSecOps. - Identity & Access: IAM policies scoped to the principle of least privilege.

To verify the telemetry pipeline without deploying compute resources, run these commands via AWS CLI:
# 1. Create the log stream
aws logs create-log-stream --log-group-name hardened-app-logs-c5745ac --log-stream-name "TestStream" --region us-east-1
# 2. Send validation ping
aws logs put-log-events --log-group-name hardened-app-logs-c5745ac --log-stream-name "TestStream" --log-events timestamp=$(date +%s%3N),message="Ghost Architect: Hardened Stack Validation Ping" --region us-east-1Created by the Ghost Architect.
