Summary

HashiCorp's Terraform has partnered with Cisco to deliver a new provider for the Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI). This integrated solution supports over 90 resources and datasources, covering all aspects of bringing up and configuring ACI infrastructure across on-prem, WAN, access, and cloud. The combined solution optimizes network compliance, operations, and maintains consistent state across multi-cloud infrastructure, enabling customers to adopt automation and faster deployment of applications. Terraform's plugin-based extensibility enables seamless integration with Cisco ACI, allowing users to define network intent through a simple workflow. With the new provider, customers can now automate their network setup using Terraform, overcoming one of the key barriers to entry in network teams.
