Orchestration to Delivery: Integrating GitLab with HashiCorp Terraform, Packer, Vault, Consul, and Waypoint

If you're using GitLab, this talk will explore how you can integrate most of the HashiCorp tools with your pipeline.

GitLab enables the efficient implementation of GitOps and infrastructure as code strategies with tools like HashiCorp Terraform, allowing organizations to efficiently and continuously roll out updates to infrastructure with shorter TTRs, Time to Recovery. It does this by enabling teams to leverage several other integrations:

  • HashCorp Vault to manage secrets during CI job execution securely
  • HashiCorp Packer to build images
  • HashiCorp Consul to handle service discovery, network infrastructure automation, and service mesh
  • HashiCorp Waypoint for application delivery

The joint solutions developed by HashiCorp and GitLab are helping organizations find a better way for application development and keeping delivery, and infrastructure management workflows in lockstep.

This session will show how GitLab integrates with HashiCorp Terraform, Packer, Consul, Vault and Waypoint.
