After switching to Pulumi, I don’t ever want to use terraform again
I googled but I can’t understand what’s terraform, can someone eli5?
You like deploying infrastructure, probably in a cloud environment, but you don’t want to push a bunch of buttons in their web interface, so you use Terraform to declaratively define the things you want, and it goes and builds them for you. Super useful for when you need to build resources often, to detect and correct config drift, and get started down the path of Infrastructure as Code.
Yeah it works super well if you have a base config across all nodes then you want to create per project configs and spin them off your build system.
There’s plenty of responses which are probably more thorough than I am, however, as I understand it as a PM dealing with cloud migrations:
Terraform is scripts of code which automates the deployment cloud platforms, applications, services so that you don’t need to manually set up and configure everything each time.
Nice, but I wonder if they plan to switch to GPL, or stay with MPL. No mention of that on the website.
They probably won’t GPL it, since that’ll make the fork even less appealing to companies.
(Not a legal advice) AFAIK, they can’t. If you want to switch a license you have to get consent of all contributors or (in case of CLA shit) consent of the owner of the code
Anything Hashicorp is just junk. It might work, but still junk under the covers. I never want to work with vault, consul, terraform, etc ever again.
