Infrastructure as code (IaC) is a standard practice of maintaining infrastructure configuration as code. Terraform is a cross-platform tool that introduces the HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) for the provisioning of infrastructures on different cloud platforms like Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud.

First you’ll learn about the basics of IaC and the tools used for it. Next, you’ll learn about Terraform, how to deploy resources using it, and the Terraform state file. Then you’ll cover the basics of HCL, followed by how to work with outputs, expressions, and loops. You’ll also cover local and remote provisioners, and learn how to employ HCL to provision and manage resources using different concepts like modules, variables, provisioners, and the Terraform state file. Finally, you’ll learn how to use the Terraform Cloud.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to provision, delete, and update resources on a cloud platform using Terraform. Knowing how to use Terraform effectively will set you up for success.

## Working with remote provisioners

Remote or `remote-exec` provisioners are used to run remotely on a target resource. Remote provisioners enable us to configure a remote resource flexibly. Let's consider three scenarios where `remote-exec` provisioners shine:

Imagine a situation where we're provisioning an EC2 instance that's intended for use as a web server, and we need to install some packages alongside it. We can set up the node by following the steps below:

1.  Add the block below to configure the VPC, internet gateway, routing, and subnet to use.
