Terraform : Intermediate Training Course

Terraform is an open-source Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solution that allows you to provision, manage, and orchestrate both cloud and on-premises resources using a declarative configuration language.

This instructor-led live training, available online or onsite, is designed for beginner-level infrastructure and DevOps professionals who want to learn Terraform fundamentals and apply IaC patterns to on-premises environments and Azure-managed virtual devices.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Terraalong with essential tooling for on-premises and Azure integration.
• Write, validate, and apply Terraform configurations using HCL to create and manage infrastructure.
• Utilize remote state backends (Azure Storage) and state locking to ensure safe collaboration.
• Manage Azure virtual devices (VMs, Virtual Desktop components) and on-premises resources through Terraform providers.
• Implement modules, variables, workspaces, and best practices for reusable IaC.
• Integrate Terraform with CI/CD pipelines to automate infrastructure deployments.
• Apply basic security measures, secrets management, drift detection, and operational practices for IaC in hybrid environments.

Course Format

• Interactive lectures and discussions.
• Guided hands-on labs and live demonstrations.
• A capstone project to design and deploy a sample on-premises plus Azure device environment using Terraform.

Terraform is an open-source Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool that enables teams to define and provision data center infrastructure through a declarative configuration language. When combined with self-hosted backends and on-premise providers, Terraform becomes a powerful instrument for managing sovereign infrastructure, effectively eliminating dependency on cloud vendors.

This instructor-led live training (offered online or onsite) is designed for intermediate infrastructure engineers looking to utilize Terraform to manage self-hosted environments, including Proxmox, VMware, libvirt, and bare-metal provisioning.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Write robust Terraform configurations for on-premise and hybrid resources.
• Securely manage state using self-hosted backends such as PostgreSQL, S3-compatible storage, and Gitea.
• Utilize provisioners and custom providers to manage the entire bare-metal lifecycle.
• Implement efficient workspaces, modular architectures, and variable hierarchies.
• Integrate Terraform into CI/CD pipelines for automated infrastructure delivery.

Course Format

• Interactive lectures and guided discussions.
• Extensive exercises and practical labs.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
