Worked on the PaloAltoNetworks/terraform-aws-swfw-modules repository, delivering two features focused on AWS infrastructure optimization using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code principles. Developed support for the gp3 EBS volume type in VM-Series Terraform modules, introducing a configurable variable to enable flexible storage selection for cost and performance benefits. Upgraded AWS provider constraints to version 5.17+ across modules, enhancing compatibility and stability. Updated default EBS volume types from gp2 to gp3, aligning with cost efficiency and improved performance goals. Maintained modular design and best practices throughout, with all changes implemented in Terraform and thoroughly documented for clarity and ease of adoption.
