Infrastructure as Code with Terraform & Ansible

Course Overview

Automate your server infrastructure lifecycle using Infrastructure as Code (IaC). This hands-on course covers declarative cloud resource provisioning using HashiCorp Terraform alongside server configuration automation and patch management using Ansible playbooks.

What You Will Learn

• Write declarative Terraform configuration files to provision multi-cloud infrastructure automatically.
• Manage Terraform state files, backend storage locking, and modular infrastructure codebases.
• Configure software services and system dependencies consistently across server fleets with Ansible.
• Integrate infrastructure provisioning directly into continuous integration and delivery pipelines.

Syllabus Breakdown

• Module 1: Terraform Provisioning Basics: Resource blocks, providers, variables, outputs, and execution plans.
• Module 2: Terraform State & Modules: Remote state storage, state locking, module creation, and environment dry-runs.
• Module 3: Server Configuration with Ansible: Inventories, playbooks, task execution, roles, and handlers.
• Module 4: IaC Pipeline Integration: Automated linting, plan validation, secret handling, and CI execution.

Who This Is For

DevOps engineers, cloud administrators, and infrastructure professionals looking to eliminate manual server management.
