This book is a comprehensive guide for employing Terraform in infrastructure as code automation, and its application to infrastructure operations.

Reverse Engineering with Terraform begins with an introduction to Terraform's core functionalities, including state files, configuration files, and providers, followed by a deep dive into the tool. You'll then learn how to pinpoint problems with Terraform automation and how reverse engineering can help you resolve them. Drilling down, authors Sumit Bhatia and Chetan Gabhane walk you through the various steps in reverse engineering with an eye towards more effective Terraform integration with preexisting and legacy IT infrastructure.
Using a real-world reverse engineering example, they demonstrate how to import a preexisting resource into your infrastructure, which can help you develop an automatable and scalable method for Terrraform adoption. You'll also learn how to create reusable, shareable components to streamline infrastructure code and foster collaboration within teams, and advanced techniques for using Terraform to optimize infrastructure provisioning, configuration, and management.
Filled with real-world case studies, tips and tricks, and best practices, this book will leave you with a thorough understanding of the infrastructure as code paradigm, and how to leverage Terraform automation with legacy as well as modern IT infrastructure.
