Module

Modules are smaller components with well-defined scopes that require policy compliance. They are designed to be reusable and adhere to best practices established by the company. Each module should offer customizable parameters tailored to meet specific team requirements and environmental needs, and provide outputs of all relevant informations of each resource.

Blueprint

Blueprints consist of aggregated modules configured for deployment purposes. They represents and group all the resources that compose a specific solution. As default they should refer Modules to inherit all best practices avoiding code duplication. A Blueprint is the artifact that will be deployed effectively.

Deployment

Deployments are environment specific definitions that establish how Blueprints are utilized. A Deployment always references a Blueprint and never directly interacts with a Module.
