Terraform in Depth (Manning)
Monday, 28 April 2025

With the subtitle "Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and OpenTofu" this book looks at Terraform and its open-source fork OpenTofu’s approach for infrastructure management. Robert Hafner considers its premise: to be able to provision, update, scale, and replicate infrastructure with the same ease as application code. The book covers the latest versions, standards, and approaches of Terraform and OpenTofu, from absolute basics all the way to advanced production uses. Every technique is illustrated with real-world examples.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
