SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Verifies actual infrastructure state by cross-checking Datadog monitors, Terraform state, and AWS API responses before any changes are made.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Datadog verification: confirm monitors, dashboards, and metrics reflect the real environment.
  • Terraform state validation: compare managed state with deployed resources and current AWS outputs.
  • AWS API corroboration: retrieve real resource status to prevent drift during change planning.

Quick Start

Initiate the fact-check workflow against the target environment to verify claims before making changes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify AWS infrastructure state before making changes?

Verify AWS infrastructure state by cross-checking Datadog monitors, Terraform state, and AWS API responses to generate an evidence-based report detailing observations, diffs, and recommendations before applying modifications.

What is the best way to prevent Terraform state drift during incident investigations?

Preventing Terraform state drift during incident investigations involves comparing managed state against deployed resources and retrieving real AWS API status to corroborate actual conditions before executing any infrastructure changes.

Do I need Datadog and AWS API keys to cross-check infrastructure facts?

Yes, cross-checking infrastructure facts requires configured Datadog API keys, Terraform state access via a profile, and AWS API permissions to retrieve real resource status and validate monitors across cloud resources.

Can I validate Datadog monitors and dashboards against the real AWS environment?

You can validate Datadog monitors and dashboards against the real AWS environment by retrieving AWS API responses to confirm that metrics and dashboards accurately reflect the current deployed infrastructure state.

How does infrastructure fact-checking work for change planning?

Infrastructure fact-checking for change planning works by corroborating Datadog monitors, Terraform state, and AWS API responses to identify configuration diffs and output recommendations before any modifications are applied.

What limitations should I expect when verifying claims across cloud resources?

When verifying claims across cloud resources, limitations include strict dependencies on having valid Datadog API keys, AWS API permissions, and Terraform state access, meaning verification cannot proceed without these configured environment prerequisites.
