Terraform

Last updated September 16, 2022.

Terraform is an infrastructure as code technology that you can use to automate your infrastructure setup. All you do is define the things you want to spin up in a .tf file, such as VMs, load balancers, K8S clusters, a VPC, etc. using Terraform’s declarative language. Terraform uses your API credentials to spin up everything you declared in the .tf file. Terraform has a rich plugin ecosystem and it’s usable on all the main cloud providers.
