Course details

Terraform is a DevOps tool for declarative infrastructure—infrastructure as code. It simplifies and accelerates the configuration of cloud-based environments. In this course, instructor Josh Samuelson shows how to use Terraform to configure infrastructure and manage resources with Amazon Web Services (AWS). After demonstrating how to set up AWS for Terraform, Josh covers how Terraform manages your infrastructure, as well as how to use core Terraform commands. He also delves into more advanced topics, including how to leverage code modules from the Terraform registry and how to create your own modules. Upon wrapping up this course, you'll have the knowledge you need to efficiently define and manage infrastructure with this powerful tool.

    This is by far the best course I've seen on LinkedIn Learning. I use Terraform in my day-to-day work and Josh presents the use of Terraform in the way it's actually done in the real world. I also found his asides and off-hand comments to be encouraging and helpful. This course will set a beginner up to succeed doing Terraform very well.

    Great course for anyone who's not familiar with Terraform yet. I'm an experienced developer and all too familiar with ops work, deployments and CI/CD, but haven't used Terraform. I had to complete this quick course to unblock development on a project that used Terraform, as the deployments weren't working. A small piece of feedback I'd give is I would prioritize the CLI in the content. Most of the tutorials at Terraform website use the CLI. It's way more likely not going to change, where as Terraform Cloud is a paid tool (although you could say cloud platforms as well), and will change at some point and this course becomes outdated.
