Hey Terraform, Build Me GCP Infrastructure

Speaker: Pradeep Bhadani

Cloud adoption across organizations is growing rapidly due to its benefits of elasticity and fully managed services. More and more organizations are migrating to cloud from on-premise systems, but building and managing cloud infrastructure in a reliable, efficient, and repeatable fashion is a challenge.

Infrastructure as code (IaC) is a process to manage and provision cloud resources using code templates. The value IaC brings to organizations is massive: cost reduction, speedy execution, secure systems, and less error-prone systems.

Terraform is an open-source tool that helps to describe infrastructure as code and it’s one of the most popular tools to build cloud infrastructure in a reliable and efficient way. Terraform has many providers available and can manage resources on different clouds like GCP, AWS, Azure, etc.

What You'll Learn

In this talk, Pradeep Bhadani will talk about Terraform and how to use it to build infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) following IaC principles. He will do a demo to show how quickly you can build and manage resources on GCP using Terraform.
