OpenTofu

In this session, we'll delve into how OpenTofu manages the state of your infrastructure. Understanding state is crucial for effectively using OpenTofu, especially when working with teams and multiple environments. We'll explore state files, secure storage options, and state locking strategies to ensure your infrastructure remains consistent and secure.

In this session we will learn how to manage multiple deployments with the same OpenTofu configuration. We will learn about workspaces which are OpenTofu's built in mechanism for managing multiple state backends. Next we will cover some tricks to make managing workspaces less error prone for users. Lastly we will look at Checkov and how to implement security and policy scanning to ensure your deployments meet your compliance needs.

Learn how to implement Convention over Configuration principles in your Infrastructure as Code using OpenTofu, making your IaC more maintainable and developer-friendly.

Learn how to incorporate testing and validation into your OpenTofu workflows. This session will focus on tools and practices for testing your infrastructure code, including syntax validation, resource policy checks, and simulating infrastructure changes before applying them.

Integrate OpenTofu into CI/CD pipelines to automate infrastructure deployments. Set up a pipeline to test, validate, and apply configurations reliably.

As platform engineers, DevOps professionals, and operations experts, our primary role is to empower developers—to make them more efficient, to help them ship faster and more confidently.

Welcome to week four of the OpenTofu Foundations workshop! This week, we'll dive into some of the advanced strategies for managing OpenTofu resources, including data sources, loops, conditionals, dynamic blocks, and lifecycle rules.

Welcome to week three of the OpenTofu workshop This week, we'll dive into functions and control structures. 90% of what we do as programmers is validate unknown data being passed to our programs, and manipulating imperfect data so we can connect software modules together. Functions help us provide a better more intuitive user experience and keep our code clean.

Welcome to week two of the OpenTofu workshop! This week, we'll dive into the concept of modular infrastructure using OpenTofu. Modules are a powerful way to organize your code, promote reusability, and enforce best practices in Infrastructure as Code (IaC). By the end of this session, you'll be able to create your own modules, use existing ones, and apply best practices for modular infrastructure design.

Welcome to week one of the OpenTofu workshop! In this module, you'll learn how to create an EC2 instance running Wordpress, set up a MariaDB database, and configure basic infrastructure in AWS. We’ll go through creating instances, security groups, and databases while discussing key Terraform/OpenTofu concepts.

Are you ready to dive into the world of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with OpenTofu? We're excited to introduce this 10-week series, designed to take you from a beginner to a confident practitioner of OpenTofu. Whether you're just starting out with IaC or looking to solidify your knowledge of OpenTofu, this workshop is for you.

OpenTofu is an infrastructure-as-code tool that lets you define both cloud and on-prem resources in human-readable configuration files that you can version, reuse, and share. This post will help you get started using OpenTofu to manage your Azure resources.

Why Terraform's New Test Functionality is a Step in the Wrong Direction

ClickOps got you down? In this post we'll learn how to generate OpenTofu code using AI. Its not a silver bullet, but it'll get you further than many of the tools in the OSS space.

Generating OpenTofu or Terraform from existing cloud resources is a tedious process fraught with gotchas. It's not a silver bullet for click-ops debt. This post will discuss caveats of tools and different approaches to generating IaC.
