IaC(Infrastructure as Code) – Terraform Learning Series

You can watch the session recordings below (see session recordings).

Overview

• IaC (Infrastructure as Code) is one of the most important developments in application deployment in many years. It means that instead of manually configuring your hardware and software infrastructure, you describe all this configuration as code.
• While every cloud gives you their implementation of it, and while Amazon heavily promotes their version called CloudFormation, Terraform is a maverick who appeared on the scene a few years ago and became more popular than all other IaC implementations.
• Terraform is open source and can be used on any other cloud provider, such as Amazon Web Services, IBM Cloud, Google Cloud Platform, DigitalOcean, Linode, Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, VMware vSphere, OpenStack, and many others. Terraform is declarative and idempotent. These are good design principles, and many competitors have also implemented Terraform ideas, making Terraform a de facto standard.

This series is organized as weekly sessions.  Each session is independent.  So you can pick and choose which sessions you want to attend. This is part of our Learning Series.

This is a live, instructor-led, virtual class.
