Terraform Advantages

Terraform is an alternative to Cloudformation


Disadvantags of cloud formation Template:

1) It is in Json
2) Json is hard to learn
3) Limited only to AWS and ARM is limited to AZURE
4) We can not add existing resources
5) CFN is slow
6) All the files are in  <filename>.tf


https://github.com/mavrick202/terraformsingleinstance/blob/master/variables.tf


The different files that are associated are

1) main.tf
2) outputs.tf
3) variables.tf  --> we will be defining all the variables here
4) .tfvars 


First  main.tf will run
It requires inputs , then it will call variables.tf , it will then load from  .tfvars

main.tf -->  variables.tf -->  .tfvars
