Manage VMs and Snapshots on vSphere

Adopt infrastructure as code best practices for on-premise or private cloud infrastructure. Create and load an Ubuntu image to vSphere using Packer. Then, provision and manage a vSphere virtual machine based on that template.

Create IAM Policies

Use Terraform to apply policy permissions to IAM user and S3 bucket resources. Refactor your policy with the IAM policy document data source to automatically format your JSON policies for reuse.

Manage Resources in Terraform State

Manipulate local state with the Terraform CLI. Create an EC2 instance and security group; then use the state subcommand to move a resource to another state file. Remove, taint, and re-import resources to manage state files and reconcile drift in your infrastructure.

Deploy Infrastructure with the Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes

Use the Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes to manage the lifecycle of cloud and on-prem infrastructure through a single Kubernetes custom resource. Use the Operator to provision an AWS SQS message queue that an application needs before it is deployed to Kubernetes.

Manage Private Environments with Terraform Cloud Agents

Configure and use a Terraform Cloud agent locally to manage isolated, private, or on-premises infrastructure. Learn how to manage resources in private environments using Terraform Cloud without enabling public ingress traffic.

Query Data Sources

Provision a web application with Terraform, and use data sources to configure it to support multiple AWS regions and availability zones. Use a remote state data source to share data between Terraform projects and to configure EC2 instances with the appropriate AMI for the current region.

Use Application Load Balancers for Blue-Green and Canary Deployments

Configure AWS application load balancers with Terraform to release an application in a rolling upgrade with near-zero downtime. In this tutorial, you will use a combination of blue-green, canary, and rolling deployments to incrementally promote a new application version via Terraform feature toggles.

Terraform Cloud

Store remote state, run in a reliable environment, and integrate version control into your workflow.

Get Started - Terraform CloudCollaborate on version-controlled configuration using Terraform Cloud. Follow this track to build, change, and destroy infrastructure using remote runs and state.

Collaborate using Terraform CloudCollaborate on infrastructure with Terraform Cloud. Follow these tutorials to migrate state from local storage and take a deeper look at Terraform Cloud operations, including VCS integration, workspace configuration, and remote runs.

Enforce Policy with SentinelEnforce policies before your users create infrastructure using Sentinel policy-as-code, included in the Terraform Cloud Team and Governance tier. Write, test, and implement Sentinel policies.
