Declarative & workflow based infrastructure with Terraform

Running a non-trivial infrastructure is the job of any developer or operator, unless they don't care about uptime or their colleagues.To reduce complexity of the task you'll most likely end up codifying your infrastructure and keep track of changes in the code sooner or later.There's a few different approaches you may take and this talk will explain the challenges and benefits of the one Terraform has taken. e.g. declarative over imperative and workflows over technologies.

We'll walk through the motivation behind the design decisions of the main Terraform features, talk about why managing VMs a just one of many concerns in a production infrastructure & ops teams and finally challenge the demo gods by creating & tearing down real infrastructure.
