Terraform provides a simple configuration with one root module, which creates a flat set of resources and uses Terraform's expression syntax to describe the relationships between these resources. Module blocks provide a hierarchical configuration where each module contains its own set of resources and child modules. In this course, explore best practices for using Terraform, such as using module composition patterns for large systems and configuring backends. Next, learn how to create reusable infrastructure with modules, integrate version control systems, and manage and maintain state files. Finally, discover how to deploy a web application on AWS by setting up a VPC, load balancer, EC2 instances, and a database while protecting sensitive data. After course completion, you will be able to implement Terraform best practices.
