What you'll learn

In this course, *Advanced Terraform with AWS*, we will dig deeper in the integration of these two amazing tech tools that are trending more and more and growing more desirable for even more users. First, we’ll review the basics of how to connect Terraform to start working with your AWS account. Next, we’ll start configuring and extending Terraform’s footprint more into AWS by setting up the Terraform backend with S3 and DynamoDB, making use of Terraform modules, taking advantage of the multi-Region capabilities of AWS, establishing a CI/CD workflow for our code, and even working with other providers that, although not part of AWS, really add value to our configurations. Finally, we’ll share some best practices that are valuable when working with Terraform and AWS. Best practices and techniques can make the difference, because these details really make our architectures last longer and work as baselines to support whichever workload we throw at it. I hope you enjoy this course and get the most value out of it!
