Class 25: Terraform Workspaces – Managing Multiple Environments with Ease!
Automating AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud resources, these concepts will help you build scalable, reliable, and efficient infrastructure.
🔥 Unleash the Power of Terraform Workspaces! 🔥
Today’s session focused on Terraform Workspaces and how they enable us to manage multiple environments with a single, streamlined codebase. Whether you're deploying to development, testing, or production environments, Terraform workspaces are key to maintaining separate states and configurations for each environment.
What we covered in Class 25:
📌 tfvars
Learn how to use the .tfvars file for managing different configurations across your environments, such as EC2 instances and AWS resources.
📌 terraform.tfvars & auto.tfvars
Understand how to structure and implement .tfvars, terraform.tfvars, and auto.tfvars to handle environment-specific variables, making your infrastructure code cleaner and more manageable.
📌 Terraform Workspace Introduction
An introduction to Terraform workspaces: What they are, how to create them, and when they should be used in your infrastructure management.
📌 Workspace Commands
Master the commands for managing workspaces and switching between them based on your project requirements.
📌 Creating Identical Infrastructure with .tfvars
How to use .tfvars files across different workspaces to create identical infrastructure stacks in dev, qa, and production environments.
🚀 Practical Hands-on Lab
With detailed examples, we built and configured a simple EC2 instance using Terraform, demonstrating the power of variables, workspaces, and automatic provisioning for cloud resources.
