Update: I took this blog post series, expanded it, and turned it into a book called Terraform: Up & Running!
In Part 1 of the Comprehensive Guide to Terraform series, we explained why we picked Terraform as our IAC tool of choice and not Chef, Puppet, Ansible, SaltStack, or CloudFormation. Today, we are releasing Part 2 of the series, where we introduce the basics of Terraform in a step-by-step tutorial that shows you how to deploy a cluster of web servers and a load balancer on AWS: An Introduction to Terraform
The tutorial is designed for AWS and Terraform newbies, so if you’ve been looking for a way to get started with either technology, take a look!
