Infrastructure as code (IaC) is a standard practice of maintaining infrastructure configuration as code. Terraform is a cross-platform tool that introduces the HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) for the provisioning of infrastructures on different cloud platforms like Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud.

First you’ll learn about the basics of IaC and the tools used for it. Next, you’ll learn about Terraform, how to deploy resources using it, and the Terraform state file. Then you’ll cover the basics of HCL, followed by how to work with outputs, expressions, and loops. You’ll also cover local and remote provisioners, and learn how to employ HCL to provision and manage resources using different concepts like modules, variables, provisioners, and the Terraform state file. Finally, you’ll learn how to use the Terraform Cloud.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to provision, delete, and update resources on a cloud platform using Terraform. Knowing how to use Terraform effectively will set you up for success.

Infrastructure as Code Using Terraform

# Overview

Making use of Terraform locally can help us achieve quite a lot of our IaC needs. Moreover, Terraform provides a cloud-native solution that is aimed at extending the capabilities of a local instance of Terraform and allows teams to be able to enhance their IaC setup even further. The Terraform Cloud interface provides several tools that allow us to store Terraform configurations and state remotely, collaborate with team members, and automate infrastructure deployments.

Terraform configuration files are organized into projects and workspaces. We're able to define variables or variable sets for each project/workspace, view runs/logs, manage the Terraform state, add new team members or users, manage tags, manage bills, manage policy/policy sets, manage authentication, and incorporate other integrations.

# Key features

The major features of Terraform Cloud include:

- Workspaces
- Remote state management
- Collaboration and version control
- Variable management
- Run history and logs
- Policy enforcement

## Workspaces

Just like working with Terraform on a local system, workspaces in Terraform Cloud provide a powerful mechanism for organizing, collaborating, and managing our infrastructure.

Workspaces can be managed intuitively via the Terraform Cloud interface. The resources that are contained in a workspace can be listed, with a view of when they were created and the contributors to that workspace, as shown in the image below.
