Serverspace Terraform Provider

A tool to declaratively manage cloud infrastructure using config files.

What Terraform is for

Seconds
Time saving

Building, scaling and recovering the infrastructure takes less time than with manual configuration.

Redundant Reliable
Eliminating mistakes

Using a configuration file always leads to the same result. The human factor is excluded.

Development
Standardization

The IaC allows you to deploy an identical infrastructure in another location. Any setting can always be changed in the config file.

Cloud Management
Version control

Keep track of every configuration change. If you are not satisfied with the update, you can always revert to an earlier state.

Some of our clients reviews

“We were searching for a reliable cloud hosting for our project to scale up. We chose Serverspace. All servers with top-notch hardware. You can configure it according to your tasks, set your own OS, it also lets you create your own internal Gigabit VLAN. In general, we are happy with it since the very beginning.”
“I am very happy with everything. I use a cloud server and object storage. The server easily withstands demand loads of even 10K unique users and 50K number of clicks per day. SSDs are really fast, the processor is fair. We have never run into performance limitations. The best price/quality ratio.”
“Before I switched providers from one to another but there weren't suitable providers. Finally, I found Serverspace and have been using its servers for 4 months. There are no such cheap virtual private servers with high network speed. Until now I haven't faced any issue with my servers.   Server creation is very fast and hourly pay really fits me. I really love the service from Serverspace. Thank you very much Serverspace.”

What is Terraform used for?

Terraform is built to simplify the process of managing your infrastructure. With it, you can deploy servers, configure networks, load balancers, and other infrastructure elements.

What does "IaaC" mean?

Infrustrcutre as code (IaaC) involves declarative infrastructure management. This means that it will not perform the same action twice, and the final state of the infrastructure is entered in the configuration file.

How is the interaction with the cloud provider's API performed?

To interact with cloud provider APIs, Terraform uses special modules - "providers". You can download them from official GitHub repositories.

Can Terrafrom work with Docker?

Terraform works with the infrastructure, while software and OS on servers are operated by other IaC management systems: Ansible, Chef, Salt, etc. They can be used in combination with Docker and other containerization systems.
