Terraform Development

Is an open-source infrastructure as a code software tool that provides a consistent CLI (command-line interface) workflow to manage hundreds of cloud services. Terraform codifies cloud APIs into declarative configuration files.

Development with Terraform in Moravio

Terraform allows infrastructure to be expressed as code in a simple, human-readable language called HCL (HashiCorp Configuration Language). It reads configuration files and provides an execution plan of changes, which can be reviewed for safety and then applied and provisioned. Extensible providers allow Terraform to manage a broad range of resources, including IaaS (Infastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), SaaS (Software as a Service), and hardware services. Define infrastructure as code to manage the full lifecycle — create new resources, manage existing ones, and destroy those no longer needed.

Why do we use Terraform at Moravio:

Terraform is a helpful tool for managing the entire lifecycle of infrastructure using infrastructure as code. That means declaring infrastructure components in configuration files that are then used by Terraform to provision, adjust and tear down infrastructure in various cloud providers. We frequently use this technology.
