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

# Introduction

We might frequently need to set up servers and network/storage components or to configure and roll out software/scripts to them. Depending on what the use case is, there are a couple of tools used to achieve the required level of automation.

As mentioned earlier, there are two classifications of the IaC tools:
- Orchestration tools
- Configuration management tools

Let's check out examples of each. Orchestration tools include the following: 


This is an IaC service provided by AWS for the provisioning and management of resources on the AWS cloud platform. It primarily makes use of template files which define the configuration and deployment of resources. Templates can be stacked together into a single unit called Stack and can be written in either JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) or YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language). The changes that an updated template will effect are referred to as a **changeset**.

Learn about the inner workings of popular IaC tools.
