About This Course

Course description

This course introduces you to provisioning with Terraform in an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) environment. It covers the basics of Terraform, introduces you to Terraform configurations, providers, and backends, and has many hands-on labs enabling you to interactively use Terraform in a real IaaS environment.

Important notice

We provide all our courses as monthly course runs to ensure that the course content and labs are continually updated, and constantly quality checked. When you purchase a course seat, you will be automatically invited to the current course run, i.e., the June course run, July course run, etc., regardless of when you make your purchase.

Much like a printed book, the course content will remain available in your Cleura Cloud Academy account, but your access to labs expires on the 7:th of the following month, i.e. July 7 for the June course run, August 7 for the July course run, etc.

Please plan your seat purchase to ensure that you have enough time to complete the course and labs before access to the labs expires.

Objectives

This course will enable you to

  • understand fundamental concepts that are important in a Terraform context, such as configurations, variables, providers, and backends.
  • use Terraform to interact with an OpenStack IaaS environment, and create, modify, and delete resources in a reproducible, configuration-driven fashion.
  • use OpenStack Swift as a shared-state repository for Terraform (using a Terraform backend), and work on Terraform configurations collaboratively in a group.
  • use Terraform’s OpenStack provider to interact with OpenStack Magnum, and deploy and manage a Kubernetes cluster from Terraform.
  • use Terraform’s Kubernetes provider to, in turn, interact with this Kubernetes cluster, and manage application deployments from Terraform, via the Kubernetes API.
