Summary

HashiCorp has added several major features to Terraform Enterprise, including secure self-service infrastructure with Vault-backed dynamic credentials, no-code provisioning, and continuous validation, designed to address security, compliance, and reliability challenges in cloud platform teams. These enhancements provide a consolidated workflow using Vault for all secrets management needs and reduce the risks of managing static credentials. The new no-code provisioning workflow allows users to provision infrastructure without writing Terraform code, while guardrails reduce misconfigurations. Continuous validation provides automated health checks using assertions defined in Terraform code to ensure infrastructure remains healthy over time. Additionally, Terraform Enterprise now supports assignment of variable sets at the project level and a new Sentinel policy review UI.
