Terraform has become a key player in the DevOps world for defining, launching, and managing infrastructure as code (IaC) across a variety of cloud and virtualization platforms, including AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and more. This hands-on third edition, expanded and thoroughly updated for version 1.0 and beyond, shows you the fastest way to get up and running with Terraform.

Gruntwork cofounder Yevgeniy (Jim) Brikman takes you through code examples that demonstrate Terraform's simple, declarative programming language for deploying and managing infrastructure with a few commands. Veteran sysadmins, DevOps engineers, and novice developers will quickly go from Terraform basics to running a full stack that can support a massive amount of traffic and a large team of developers.

Terraform is an open source tool created by HashiCorp that allows you to define your infrastructure as code using a simple, declarative language and to deploy and manage that infrastructure across a variety of public cloud providers (e.g., Amazon Web Services [AWS], Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, DigitalOcean) and private cloud and virtualization platforms (e.g., OpenStack, VMware) using a few commands.

Thanks to its simplicity and power, Terraform has emerged as a key player in the DevOps world. It allows you to replace the tedious, fragile, and manual parts of infrastructure management with a solid, automated foundation upon which you can build all your other DevOps practices (e.g., automated testing, Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery) and tooling (e.g., Docker, Chef, Puppet). This book is the fastest way to get up and running with Terraform.

You’ll go from deploying the most basic “Hello, World” Terraform example (in fact, you just saw it!) all the way up to running a full tech stack (virtual servers, Kubernetes clusters, Docker containers, load balancers, databases) capable of supporting a large amount of traffic and a large team of developers—all in the span of just a few chapters. This is a hands-on tutorial that not only teaches you DevOps and infrastructure as code (IaC) principles but also walks you through dozens of code examples that you can try at home, so make sure you have your computer handy.
