Description: tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure
This package contains a tool for building, changing, and versioning
infrastructure safely and efficiently. Terraform can manage existing and
popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions.
.
Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve
infrastructure. It is an open source tool that codifies APIs into declarative
configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code,
edited, reviewed, and versioned.
.
The key features of Terraform are:
* Infrastructure as Code: Infrastructure is described using a high-
level configuration syntax. This allows a blueprint of your datacenter
to be versioned and treated as you would any other code. Additionally,
infrastructure can be shared and re-used.
* Execution Plans: Terraform has a "planning" step where it
generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what Terraform
will do when you call apply. This lets you avoid any surprises when
Terraform manipulates infrastructure.
* Resource Graph: Terraform builds a graph of all your resources,
and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent
resources. Because of this, Terraform builds infrastructure as
efficiently as possible, and operators get insight into dependencies in
their infrastructure.
* Change Automation: Complex changesets can be applied to your
infrastructure with minimal human interaction. With the previously
mentioned execution plan and resource graph, you know exactly what
Terraform will change and in what order, avoiding many possible human
errors.
