HashiCorp Terraform Cost Estimation With Infracost And Run Tasks Now GA
Blog post from Infracost
Infracost, in partnership with HashiCorp, has launched a direct integration into Terraform Cloud utilizing the new Terraform run tasks feature, allowing engineers to estimate the cost impact of their Infrastructure as Code changes before deployment. This integration aims to prevent budget breaches by providing a 'checkout screen' for developers, enabling them to see detailed cost breakdowns without hindering their workflow. By integrating into CI/CD systems, Infracost can leave comments like "this change will increase your costs by 15% next month." The setup process is straightforward, taking only three minutes, and it allows users to view cost estimates directly from the Terraform Cloud dashboard. While the current setup supports Advisory enforcement, which doesn't block runs, future updates are expected to include Mandatory enforcement to prevent cost overages.
