HashiCorp and AWS hosted a webinar on November 17th, 2016 featuring Mitchell Hashimoto, Founder & CTO of HashiCorp, and Brandon Chavis, Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services.

Build your entire AWS infrastructure with one command. Servers, network, storage, DNS, CDNs, load balancers, and much more all have APIs. Terraform is a tool to model all of these resources in a single language across multiple cloud providers, then bring then up and connect them all in a single command. Terraform can then be used to model changes to your AWS infrastructure and safely effect those changes.

Terraform's safety comes from the ability to "plan" changes: Terraform shows you an execution plan of what it will do before it does it. You can then determine if a change is safe or not and whether to apply it. Along with this safety Terraform is highly resistant to errors: it retries failed operations and is idempotent and can be run again if an operation cannot complete the first time. In this talk we present the problems faced in automating infrastructure and how Terraform is being used to solve them in production.
