The best book about Terraform available at the moment.
By treating your infrastructure as a codeable application, you can instantaneously create and launch new components and respond efficiently to changes in demand and other use requirements. Terraform in Action introduces the Infrastructure-as-Code model using the amazing Terraform automation tool, teaching you how to design and manage servers that can be provisioned, shared, changed, tested, and deployed at the touch of a button. Unlock the full potential of Terraform to manage your infrastructure as easily as you manage your codebase.
Terraform is a provisioning tool for building, changing, and combining cloud infrastructure safely and efficiently. By defining infrastructure as code, Terraform empowers its users to deploy their entire stack to the cloud at the touch of a button. This code-based infrastructure can be shared easily among team members, managed using version control, and configured to reliably test new configurations without running the risk of breaking live systems. Easily integrated with all major cloud providers, mastery of Terraform is increasingly essential for anyone with a role working in DevOps, Operations, or SRE.
Terraform in Action unlocks the full potential of infrastructure you can automate, scale, and manage programmatically using Terraform. Through hands-on projects, including deploying a multiplayer game and a fully-managed Kubernetes cluster, distinguished Terraform expert Scott Winkler shows you how to think in Terraform rather than just copy-paste code. Written to focus on Terraform 0.12 and covering new syntax, the book covers both fundamentals and advanced designs, such as zero-downtime deployments and creating your own Terraform provider. When you’re done, you’ll be able to seamlessly manage Terraform cloud architecture and use Terraform as the basis for a continuous development/continuous delivery platform.
Written for readers experienced with major cloud platforms such as AWS or Google Cloud. Examples are in the Go language.
Scott Winkler is a distinguished Terraform speaker. He has presented at HashiConf 2018 and HashiTalks 2019 on novel ways to leverage Terraform for the enterprise. His ideas have made their way into the open source community, either through his personal contribution or indirectly through Hashicorp partners. He has trained dozens of DevOps engineers on how to use Terraform and has created comprehensive CICD Terraform solutions for businesses.
