A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course.
Master Terraform from scratch and unlock the power of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with practical, project-based learning. By the end of the course, you’ll confidently deploy cloud infrastructure using Terraform across real-world scenarios.
Starting with environment setup and tool installation, the course introduces you to key IaC concepts and guides you through hands-on projects, including building EC2 instances, deploying static websites, and managing IAM users. Each section deepens your understanding with practical applications in AWS.
As you advance, you'll work with modules, validate configurations, manipulate Terraform state, and even integrate with Terraform Cloud and OIDC for secure and scalable deployment workflows. Each lesson builds toward mastery through structured labs and real infrastructure tasks.
This course is ideal for DevOps engineers, cloud architects, and system administrators looking to automate cloud provisioning. A basic understanding of cloud services and command-line usage is helpful, but not mandatory. The course is designed for intermediate learners.
Applied Learning Project
The course includes several hands-on projects, including deploying an S3 static website, managing IAM users, and creating RDS modules. These projects will help you apply Terraform to real-world infrastructure tasks and enhance your problem-solving skills.
