Terraform Init Command: Examples, Tips and Best Practices

One of the foundational commands at the heart of Terraform is terraform init. This command is what sets the stage for all the subsequent operations that you perform with Terraform. It prepares a new or existing directory for Terraform usage by creating initial files, loading any remote state, downloading modules, and installing provider plugins.

Day 0 Environment Creation

env0 works well for customers who already have infrastructure provisioned in the cloud. But what if you need to support infrastructure developers and still need the management layer that env0 provides? We refer to this process of creating new infrastructure through automation as “Day 0” environment creation. This post shows one such way of automating the creation of the env0 environment resources by using our TF provider and some shell magic.

Plan and Apply on PR

Many organizations work almost exclusively in their VCS. For these types of GitOps-style workflows, having to change from their VCS to another platform to handle IaC deployments was both time consuming, and represented an unnecessary distraction. Now, with PR Comment Commands, DevOps engineering can seamlessly interact with their env0 IaC deployment and management platform without ever leaving GIT.

Multi-Environment Deployment Workflow with env0’s Terraform Provider

Infrastructure is typically built up from multiple layers, starting with the network to the compute layer. In order to deploy your K8s cluster, you typically need your subnets and VPCs defined ahead of time. As I talk to customers about their IaC deployment challenges, I often get asked how env0 can help with orchestrating dependencies amongst these multi-tiered, multi-layered infrastructure deployments.

It's not Terraform or Ansible... Terraform AND Ansible = Total Flexibility

We have seen a lot of content that pits Ansible and Terraform against one another. Our challenge is that Ansible and Terraform are two similar tools that are purpose-built to achieve two different goals. Rather than ask about Ansible vs Terraform, we should ask about how these two extremely powerful tools can be used together. Then, coupled with the env0 platform and the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, the automation possibilities are nearly limitless.
