In today's fast-paced tech environment, managing infrastructure manually can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Let's talk about one of many tools, that can help us with that.
What is Terraform?
Terraform is a powerful Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool that enables you to build, change, and version your infrastructure safely and efficiently. With Terraform, you can define both cloud and on-premises resources in human-readable configuration files that you can version, reuse, and share.
Why Use Terraform?
- Consistency - Ensures that your infrastructure setup is consistent and repeatable.
- Automation - Automates the provisioning and management of your infrastructure.
- Scalability - Makes it easy to scale your infrastructure up or down.
- Version Control - Allows you to version your infrastructure configuration, making it easier to track changes and rollback if needed.
