Terraform for Developers
#1about 1 minute
Understanding the fundamentals of Infrastructure as Code
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) uses automation to manage infrastructure, eliminating manual errors and bringing software best practices to operations.
#2about 2 minutes
Introducing Terraform for multi-cloud infrastructure management
Terraform is an open-source tool that lets you define and manage the full lifecycle of your cloud infrastructure as code.
#3about 1 minute
Exploring the features of Terraform Cloud for teams
Terraform Cloud provides collaboration features like VCS integration, remote state management, policy as code with Sentinel, and cost estimation.
#4about 2 minutes
Understanding Terraform syntax and language features
Terraform's configuration language uses blocks, variables, conditional expressions, function calls, and for expressions to define resources dynamically.
#5about 2 minutes
Core Terraform commands and the execution workflow
The standard Terraform workflow involves using `init` to prepare the directory, `plan` to preview changes, and `apply` to create or update infrastructure.
#6about 9 minutes
Demo of provisioning resources on Microsoft Azure
A step-by-step demonstration shows how to write a Terraform configuration file and use the CLI to deploy an app service and SQL database on Azure.
#7about 4 minutes
Demo of provisioning resources on Google Cloud Platform
This demonstration walks through initializing, planning, and applying a configuration to create compute instances and networking resources in GCP.
#8about 5 minutes
Demo of provisioning resources on Amazon Web Services
A brief walkthrough shows how to configure the AWS provider and run `terraform plan` to preview the creation of a launch configuration.
#9about 4 minutes
Managing Terraform state and CI/CD integration
The Terraform state file, which maps resources to your configuration, should be stored remotely and securely in a separate resource group for team collaboration.
#10about 2 minutes
Building an Azure DevOps release pipeline for Terraform
An example release pipeline in Azure DevOps uses CLI and PowerShell tasks to manage storage keys before running `terraform init`, `plan`, and `apply`.
#11about 4 minutes
Comparing Terraform with configuration management tools
Terraform is a provisioning tool for creating immutable infrastructure, differing from configuration management tools like Ansible, Chef, and Puppet which manage software on existing servers.
#12about 3 minutes
Using Terraform with Packer, Docker, and Kubernetes
Packer can build virtual machine images with Docker and Kubernetes pre-installed, which Terraform then deploys as a cluster to run containerized applications.
#13about 2 minutes
Comparing Terraform with other cloud provisioning tools
Unlike cloud-native tools like AWS CloudFormation or Azure Resource Manager, Terraform is open-source and cloud-agnostic, while Pulumi offers a similar approach using general-purpose programming languages.
#14about 2 minutes
Summary of IaC benefits and learning resources
Infrastructure as Code provides consistency, scalability, and traceability, and you can learn more through Terraform's official documentation, certifications, and books.
