How to use Terraform for infrastructure as code in deploying and managing AWS resources for a Python application?

Asked 5 months ago

My project manager told me that I need to use Terraform to manage AWS resources for my Python application. How should I set it up? Thanks.

To use Terraform for managing AWS resources in Python applications, start by installing Terraform and writing your infrastructure as code in Terraform configuration files. Define your AWS resources like EC2 instances, RDS databases, and S3 buckets using Terraform's HCL syntax.

You can use Terraform modules to organize and reuse code, while storing your state file securely, preferably in a remote backend like S3 with state locking. Test your Terraform configurations locally and apply them to deploy resources on AWS. Once you're done, integrate Terraform with your CI/CD pipeline for automated deployment and management.
