Still, only 10% realize the business impact they thought they would — cutting costs, improving resilience, and driving new revenue. Why does it seem like organizations often get cloud wrong? HashiCorp Terraform is designed to address the challenges faced in each stage of the infrastructure lifecycle — Day 0 (build), Day 1 (deploy), and Day 2+ (manage). It enables platform teams to abstract complexities away from developers while ensuring they always use the approved approach with governance policies baked into deployment workflows. Terraform offers turnkey tools and workflows needed to consistently deliver the infrastructure underpinning cloud applications from initial provisioning to maintenance, and eventual decommissioning. The result? Lower risk, less complexity, lower net costs, and accelerated productivity.
