Features Of Terraform

The following are the features of Terraform:

• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform allows to define your infrastructure (like virtual machines, networks, databases, etc.) using code instead of clicking around in a web console. This code can be version-controlled, shared, and reused.
• Multi-Cloud Integration: Terraform can easily integrated with multiple cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc.) as well as on-premises infrastructure. Organizations can use the same Terraform code to manage resources across different clouds.
• Automatic Dependencies Configuration: Terraform automatically understands dependencies between resources and creates or updates them in the correct order, without having to manually manage those dependencies.
• Execution Plan: Before making any changes, Terraform generates an execution plan that shows what it will do (create, update, or delete resources). we can review this plan and approve it before applying the changes.
• Tracking Of Resources: Terraform keeps track of the resources it manages in a state file. This state file acts as a source of truth, so Terraform knows what already exists and what needs to be changed.
• Consistent Workflow: Terraform has a consistent workflow (init, plan, apply) that you use to manage your infrastructure, regardless of the cloud provider we are using or resources involved.

EBS Stands for Elastic Block Storage is a block-level storage service provided by Amazon web services to use with Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances.It provides persistent, high-performance storage volumes that can be attached to Amazon EC2 instances. it acts as an attached external hard drive to your instances. These EBS Volumes can be dynamically scaled to accommodate changing storage requirements. users can increase the size of a volume without detaching it from the instance, enabling them to scale storage capacity on-demand as they need.
