terraform1.17.1

Describe the infrastructure you want in configuration files, then use terraform to create, change, and improve that environment through a controlled, predictable workflow. It converts infrastructure APIs into declarative definitions, so you specify the intended result instead of documenting every operational action required to reach it. This gives infrastructure work a written form that can be examined before changes are applied.

Configuration files can be shared among colleagues, edited like code, reviewed, and tracked through version control. The same process preserves both current and earlier infrastructure definitions, providing a history for discussing and managing changes. Individuals who maintain infrastructure and teams coordinating shared infrastructure definitions can use this approach to prepare, inspect, and revise changes before applying them.

Terraform suits situations where infrastructure must be described consistently rather than assembled through a sequence of manual actions. Its API-based, configuration-driven model makes the desired setup the central reference for ongoing infrastructure work.

The Linux edition is published by Snapcrafters, is distributed as freeware, and requires Linux with snapd. Version 1.17.1 supports amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, and s390x architectures.
