Opleiding: Terraform Fundamentals (English) (Virtual)

Terraform is one of the most popular tools from the American company HashiCorp and for good reason.

Anyone dealing with a hybrid IT landscape or multi-cloud environment can use Terraform to provision IT infrastructure in a clear and structured way. The combination of the powerful HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) and a vast array of providers for a variety of vendors makes Terraform a highly versatile tool for deploying Infrastructure as Code.
During this training you will learn the most important concepts of Terraform and gain experience in the hands-on lab on how to set up a (Linux-based) IT infrastructure.
Sensitive data: In this module, you will learn about the different options for securing sensitive data in your configuration, including the advantages and disadvantages of each method. You will learn how to safely handle sensitive information such as API keys and passwords without storing them in plain text in your Terraform state or plan files. In addition, you will learn how to use ephemeral resources to retrieve and use short-lived components (such as temporary access tokens) that exist only during the apply phase and are immediately discarded afterwards.
