Terraform is a key Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool in the DevOps ecosystem designed to manage and automate infrastructure provisioning. It uses declarative syntax to define the desired state of infrastructure and supports multiple cloud providers through plugins. Key features include multi-cloud provisioning, remote state management, policy as code, and reusable modules. The Terraform workflow involves writing configuration files, initializing providers, planning execution, applying changes, and destroying infrastructure. Terraform seamlessly integrates with CI/CD pipelines, promoting standardization and automation in infrastructure management.
