        What is Terraform and why is it essential for your career?

        In today's fast-paced tech world, manually managing cloud infrastructure is inneficient and prone to error. Terraform is a powerful Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool that solves this problem by allowing you to define and manage your cloud resources using simple connfiguration files.

        With Terraform, you can automate everything - from provisioning virtual machines and databases to configuring networks and security groups  across major cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. This automation is not just about saving time. It is about building consistent, scalable, and reliable infrastructure, which is a critical skill for any DevOps engineer, cloud architect, or system administrator.

        Training objectives

        The aim of the training is to familiarize participants with the topic of automating the creation and management of cloud infrastructure using the Terraform tool and the Infrastructure as Code approach.

        In the theoretical part of the training (lectures), participants will gain knowledge about how the Terraform tool works and its functions enabling the implementation of tasks related to the automation of the creation and management of cloud infrastructure. The practical part of the training (exercises) will be carried out on the Linux platform and will allow training participants to check and understand exactly how the Terraform tool works.

        The purpose of the training is not to familiarize participants with the operation of the cloud infrastructure within which the training will be carried out.

        Skills

        Thanks to the training, the participant will be able to:

        • Define what the Infrastructure as Code approach is and state its advantages
        • Indicate how the Terraform tool implements the Infrastructure as Code approach
        • Install and configure Terraform
        • Create and configure a new project
        • Select and configure the Provider associated with the target infrastructure
        • Create resource definition using HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL)
        • Create, modify and delete resources using Terraform
        • Manage the status of resources created by Terraform
        • Parameterize the operations performed by the Terraform tool
        • Create and use modules
        • Use built-in HCL functions
        • Create dynamic blocks when defining resources in HCL
        • Create and manage Terraform Workspace
        • Diagnose and troubleshoot Terraform performance issues

        Is this training for you?

        The training is intended for people whose work is related to the creation and management of cloud infrastructure and are interested in expanding their knowledge of Infrastructure as Code using the Terraform tool.

        Training for: System engineers, DevOps teams

        Requirements

        Training participants are required to know how the cloud infrastructure in which they want to use the Terraform tool works and the basics of using Linux operating systems.

        Duration

        2 days, 16 training hours

        Training delivery method

        The training is divided into modules including a theoretical part (lectures) and a practical part (exercises). During the theoretical part, the training participant acquires the basic and necessary knowledge to complete the practical part. The practical part is carried out on a remote platform and requires only a web browser.

        These formulas are the extensions past the basics, such as:

        • IF, IFS, COUNTIF, SUMIF
        • VLOOKUP, INDEX, MATCH
        • TEXT, LEFT, RIGHT, MID
        • DATE, TIME, NOW

        These functions are often combined in nested formulas to tackle real-world spreadsheet problems.

        How do you become intermediate in Excel?

        You can achieve the intermediate level by mastering the following skills:

        • efficient data entry and formatting
        • logical and lookup functions
        • pivot tables and advanced filters
