How to run operations with Terraform
In this final section of this book, we will explore how to run operations with Terraform. As we have seen throughout this book, Terraform is a powerful tool for IaC and provides a way to define and manage infrastructure resources in a declarative manner. However, it is also important to understand how to use Terraform to manage and maintain infrastructure in production environments, and this section will cover best practices for doing so.
