Terraform

Terraform is an open-source infrastructure as code (IaC) tool developed by HashiCorp. It allows users to define and provision data center infrastructure using a declarative configuration language. This enables the management of a wide range of resources, including virtual machines, networks, and storage, across various cloud providers and on-premises solutions.

It is primarily used by DevOps engineers, system administrators, and developers to automate the deployment and management of infrastructure. By codifying infrastructure, Terraform facilitates consistent, repeatable, and scalable infrastructure provisioning, reducing manual errors and improving operational efficiency for organizations managing complex cloud environments.
