Summary

Terraform Cloud, a managed service offering from HashiCorp, simplifies infrastructure as code management by providing multiple workflows for building, managing, and collaborating on infrastructure. The platform works seamlessly with the Terraform Registry, which offers a browsable and searchable interface for finding providers and modules to reduce complexity within infrastructure. To demonstrate its capabilities, an example is provided of launching a Kubernetes container on Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) using pre-built providers and modules from the public Terraform Registry. The process involves setting up a Terraform Cloud account, adding relevant providers and modules, creating a workspace, and writing configuration files to deploy the AKS cluster. Terraform Cloud provides various workflows for provisioning, including GitOps-style workflow, CLI-driven workflow, and UI-driven workflow, allowing users to deploy and manage their infrastructure efficiently.
