Description

Are you already familiar with Terraform and AWS, but want to take your infrastructure-as-code skills to the next level? This course is designed for professionals who know the basics and are ready to build real-world, production-ready solutions using Terraform and Jenkins.In this course, you’ll learn how to properly configure a Terraform backend to store and manage your state files. You’ll also discover several effective strategies for handling multiple environments, including how to separate and isolate infrastructure for development, staging, and production. We’ll explore three proven approaches: using separate folders, Terraform workspaces, and sub-folder structures for environment management.On top of that, you’ll learn how to build a fully automated CI/CD pipeline using Jenkins to deploy your infrastructure. This will help you move beyond manual deployments and adopt a scalable, team-friendly workflow.You’ll also see everything in action through two hands-on demos — one running locally on your machine, and the other integrated into a Jenkins pipeline for continuous delivery.This is not a beginner course. You should already be comfortable with basic Terraform commands, have experience with AWS, and know how to create resources like EC2, S3, or IAM roles.If you’re looking to level up your Terraform workflow with real-world automation techniques, this course is for you.
