# Terraform Workshop
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
## What is Terraform
|
||
|
|
||
|
IaC (Infrastructure as Code) framework which enables programatic definition,
|
||
|
deployment and management of infrastructure resources for cloud and on-premises
|
||
|
in a declarative manner. It targets all major cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, Azure, DO etc.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
---
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Why do We Need it
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Standardization of deployment to ensure a consistent state
|
||
|
* Version control
|
||
|
* Deploying an additional clone env for testing
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Easier auditability to improve quality and security
|
||
|
* Modular - reuse & ease of understanding
|
||
|
* Resource Graph (dependency graph + parallel execution when possible)
|
||
|
* Version control
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Enables use of hardened deployment pipelines
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Enables immutable infrastructure
|
||
|

## Human-Readible Configuration Language
|
||
|
|
||
|
* HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) or JSON
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
provider "aws" {
|
||
|
region = "us-west-2"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
resource "aws_instance" "example" {
|
||
|
ami = "ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0" # Amazon Linux 2 AMI ID
|
||
|
instance_type = "t2.micro"
|
||
|
|
||
|
tags = {
|
||
|
Name = "HelloWorldEC2Instance"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
output "instance_public_ip" {
|
||
|
value = aws_instance.example.public_ip
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||

|
||
|
|
||
|
## Workflow
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Write your configuration file
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Use the the `terraform plan` action to simulate deployment of resources and assess the outcome
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Use `terraform apply` to actually deploy resources
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
# Exercise
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Set up local credentials for your cloud platform of choice
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Write a file that deploys an EC2 instance
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Use `terraform plan` and `terraform apply` in order to deploy the resource
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Remove the resource by updating your configuration file and using `terraform plan` and `terraform apply`
|
||
|
|
||

|
||
|
|
||
|
# Extend Configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Add a VPC
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Define security group that limits ingress and egress to port 22
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Add SSH key(s) which may connect to the instance
|
||
