Terraform

Terraform describes cloud infrastructure in declarative configuration files, compares them with what exists and plans the changes needed to close the gap, across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and many other providers. Cloud and platform engineers keep those files in Git like application code. The state file is what beginners underestimate: lose or corrupt it and Terraform no longer knows what it manages.
