About

Terraform is an open-source infrastructure as code software tool that provides a consistent CLI workflow to manage hundreds of cloud services. Terraform codifies cloud APIs into declarative configuration files. Write infrastructure as code using declarative configuration files. HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) allows for concise descriptions of resources using blocks, arguments, and expressions. Run terraform plan to check whether the execution plan for a configuration matches your expectations before provisioning or changing infrastructure. Apply changes to hundreds of cloud providers with terraform apply to reach the desired state of the configuration. Define infrastructure as code to manage the full lifecycle — create new resources, manage existing ones, and destroy those no longer needed.
