Summary

HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise provides mechanisms for managing infrastructure as code in air gapped networks, which are isolated from the internet. The platform accounts for these restrictions by using different installation methods, including online and air-gapped approaches. In an air-gapped environment, the installation script must be downloaded, copied to the target system, and staged within the network before it can be executed. HashiCorp produces "air gap bundles" that contain all necessary bits and pieces for Terraform Enterprise, which are used to bypass internet connectivity limitations. The platform includes a mechanism to create Terraform bundles, which are zip files containing specific versions of the Terraform binary and provider files. These bundles must be created from systems with internet access and then transferred to air-gapped environments. The Terraform Enterprise web interface allows administrators to manage Terraform bundle availability and updates. Additionally, the platform's API provides a way to automate workflows for creating, managing, and deploying bundles.
