In this course, you will work from the ground up, starting with what Terraform is and the problems it solves. The course will then guide you through the features of Terraform.

You will build on your knowledge with the end goal of you being comfortable building projects using Terraform.

Terraform: From Beginner to Master with Examples in AWS

## Chef and Puppet vs. Terraform
Chef and Puppet are configuration management tools. They are designed to configure and manage
the software that is running on a machine (infrastructure) that already exists. Terraform, on the other hand, sits above that at the abstraction layer and is designed to set up all of the infrastructures that make up your system, such as load balancers, servers, DNS records, etc. In other words, Puppet and Chef are used to configure servers, while Terraform is used to create the server itself.

This lesson will examine how the Chef and Puppet tools work, and whether or not they can solve the problem of configuring infrastructure manually.
