Terraform Learning

Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that allows for the safe and efficient building, changing, and versioning of cloud and on-prem resources. It works by creating and managing resources through APIs, enabling multi-cloud deployments and simplifying management across different providers. Additionally, Terraform supports the deployment, scaling, and monitoring of multi-tier applications, enhancing operational efficiency.

Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you build, change, and version

cloud and on-prem resources safely and efficiently.

How does Terraform work?

Terraform creates and manages resources on cloud platforms and other services
through their application programming interfaces (APIs). Providers enable Terraform
to work with virtually any platform or service with an accessible API.

Use Cases

Multi-Cloud Deployment

Provisioning infrastructure across multiple clouds increases fault tolerance, allowing


for more graceful recovery from cloud provider outages. However, multi-cloud
deployments add complexity because each provider has its own interfaces, tools,
and workflows. Terraform lets you use the same workflow to manage multiple
providers and handle cross-cloud dependencies. This simplifies management and
orchestration for large-scale, multi-cloud infrastructures.

Application Infrastructure Deployment, Scaling, and Monitoring Tools

You can use Terraform to efficiently deploy, release, scale, and monitor
infrastructure for multi-tier applications. N-tier application architecture lets you scale
application components independently and provides a separation of concerns.
