Frequently Asked Questions

What is Terraform used for?
Terraform is an infrastructure as code (IaC) tool that lets you define, provision, and manage cloud resources using declarative configuration files. It supports AWS, Azure, GCP, and 3,000+ other providers.
Is Terraform still free after the license change?
Terraform remains free under the Business Source License (BSL) for most use cases. The license only restricts competing hosted services. OpenTofu is a fully open-source fork if the BSL concerns you.
Should I learn Terraform or Pulumi first?
Start with Terraform if you are new to IaC. It has a larger community, more learning resources, and HCL is purpose-built for infrastructure. Pulumi is worth exploring once you are comfortable with IaC concepts.
