As you probably have seen from previous posts, Terraform as a technology has peaked my interest. Luckily for me, safaribooks put on a 3-hour course on this very topic. The course was presented by Yevgeniy Brikman and it was very well done!
What I liked?
The presenter was absolutely awesome. Very knowledgeable and what I liked was the presentation went quickly from the basics to some of the more advanced terraform concepts. He talked about some issues that I ran up against when I was using terraform. For example, he touched on how he does credential management from both local servers and build servers. He also talked about how he organizes his tf files and how he integrates modules into his workflow. Finally, I really liked the project he showed at the end for using go to "test" your terraform scripts in an automated fashion.
What I didn't like?
The O'Reilly platform requires flash to get the audio. Wow, #howisthisstillathing ?
I am really liking terraform and it's ability to deploy resources cross-platform. I am hoping to experiment more with it to see how I can bring this technology to my clients. If you are interested in the course, I think there is another one coming up in a few weeks.
