Terraform Basics: Core Workflow

Key to understanding Terraform and infrastructure as code in general is the core workflow behind day-to-day management of your IaC built environments.

We are going to start this video by first talking about the general lifecycle of deploying and managing infrastructure as code, and then we map that model onto using Terraform, and specifically the terraform commands you'll use to manage your infrastructure.

In this video we'll cover:

✅ Infrastructure as Code Lifecycle
✅ Core Workflow in Terraform
✅ Core Commands for Terraform

This is part of the Terraform Basics series, a set of video created to focus on one aspect of Terraform and explain it in detail. While not a replacement for a full course, if there's something in Terraform that doesn't quite click with you, hopefully Terraform Basics will fill in the gaps.
