Serverspace has added a new tool for automated cloud resources management — Terraform. Now there is no need for users to create their cloud infrastructure manually, they just need to describe its desired state, and the program will take care of the rest.
What is Terraform?
Terraform is a software tool from HashiCorp that allows you to declaratively manage the cloud infrastructure using the «Infrastructure as code» approach. Management is carried out using special configuration files in which the user describes the desired state of the future infrastructure.
How to use it?
- Install Terraform in your operating system;
- Create an API key for the project that will work with Terraform;
- Set a description of your future infrastructure;
- Enjoy the process.
Detailed information on how to set up and use Terraform is described in your profile settings in the control panel in the «Automation» tab.
