Terraform

/ˈtɛr.ə.fɔrm/

n. “Infrastructure described as intent, not instructions.”

Terraform is an open-source infrastructure as code (IaC) tool created by HashiCorp that allows engineers to define, provision, and manage computing infrastructure using human-readable configuration files. Instead of clicking through dashboards or manually issuing commands, Terraform treats infrastructure the same way software treats source code — declarative, versioned, reviewable, and repeatable.
