After months my infrastructure migration of my game servers is finally done. Where I once had just a handful of ec2's floating around(everything done by hand) now I have:

* A full infrastructure managed by terraform
* Systems fully configured through ansible
* Automated Logging for all hosts
* 0 Elastic IP's established due to having Dynamic DNS(again setup through Terraform+Ansible)
* A full clone of the VPC in Vagrant

The only thing left is to setup a full Git ops pipeline but at least now I can use ansible commands to setup/update my systems really quickly.
Terraform now let's me setup whole new chunks of infra super easily
With some Gitops I can basically remove the need to do any of that myself and finally spin up new servers nearly instantly from any dev seutp(as long as I have my Git keys)

Doing a write up for all this is going take forever though :p

Oh yea and all of this is hooked up to a chat bot that basically let's me press buttons to turn on /turn off servers at will :D
