What is Hashicorp Terraform?
Terraform Cloud is a SaaS application that enables users to write, build, and manage infrastructure as code with the Terraform tool. Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that allows defining both cloud and on-premises resources in human-readable configuration files, which can then be versioned, reused, and shared. This consistent workflow empowers users to provision and manage their entire infrastructure lifecycle, including low-level components like compute, storage, and networking resources, as well as higher-level components such as DNS entries and SaaS features. Terraform interacts with a wide range of platforms and services through their application programming interfaces (APIs), enabling users to work with virtually any accessible solution
