What you'll learn

Systems administrators and DevOp engineers have always been charged to do more with less. Defining infrastructure in code and automating its deployment helps improve operational efficiency and lower administrative overhead. In this course, Terraform: Variables and Outputs, you'll build on your foundational knowledge of Terraform to create configurations that are more dynamic and secure. First, you'll discover how Terraform can use input variables to create more flexible configurations. Next, you’ll explore how local values can streamline your code. Finally, you’ll learn about how outputs are used for root and child modules. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the knowledge required to take your Terraform configurations to the next level.
