Terraform Plan: Examples of How it Works

Terraform Plan aims to help you review and verify your configuration before applying it. It gives you a chance to catch any errors or inconsistencies in your terraform code, and to make sure that you are not making any unwanted changes to your infrastructure. It also helps you communicate and collaborate with your team members, by showing them what you intend to do and getting their feedback.

Terraform Modules Guide: Best Practices & Examples

Infrastructure as Code is first and foremost code, and a chief principle of writing good software is leveraging abstractions to make your code reusable, scalable, and consistent. Terraform modules are the abstraction provided by HashiCorp to take logical groupings of resources and package them together in a reusable object.

Plan and Apply on PR

Many organizations work almost exclusively in their VCS. For these types of GitOps-style workflows, having to change from their VCS to another platform to handle IaC deployments was both time consuming, and represented an unnecessary distraction. Now, with PR Comment Commands, DevOps engineering can seamlessly interact with their env0 IaC deployment and management platform without ever leaving GIT.

Infrastructure as Code is a Creative Job

Some art forms are not appreciated for their aesthetic value, like music, or literature and poetry. Yet, some ways of sharing such artworks are with a written document, e.g. music sheets and lyrics pages for songs. These art forms evolved as well and new genres of the written word came to be. One of those genres is code.

Ad-hoc tasks

DevOps engineers sometimes need to perform one-off commands on their Terraform code or state. For example, “terraform import” or “terraform state rm”, or any other Terraform or bash commands. The problem is that it is dangerous to allow users to work directly from a terminal.
