Terraform

Quick Start (workflow)

terraform init
terraform plan -out=tfplan
terraform apply tfplan

Safety Checklist

• State: remote backend + locking; separate state per environment
• Reviews: plan in CI; apply from a trusted runner with approvals
• Guardrails: prevent_destroy and policy checks for prod
