Terraform for infrastructure that stays transferable
Infrastructure captured as code and versioned
Repeatable changes for acceptance and production
Relevant when management, transferability, and portability matter

Defining cloud environments as code
We use Terraform when infrastructure should not depend on manual actions in a Glossary · In briefcloudThe cloud is a collective term for computing power, storage, databases and software available over a network, usually from an external provider's data centres.Read more console. By defining environments as code, you can recreate the same foundation, review changes, and see exactly what changed later on. That matters most when software runs across multiple environments and management needs to be not only fast, but also easy to control.

What it solves in practice
How Terraform simplifies infrastructure management
Acceptance and production should not become manually grown exceptions. Terraform helps you roll out the same infrastructure deliberately and consistently.
You can see what changed, why it changed, and what the impact is. That makes infrastructure reviewable instead of invisible management work.
When infrastructure is defined as code, it stays clear how an environment is built. That makes transfer, audit, and ongoing development much easier to manage.
The same base in every environment

Why we use it
Strong when systems grow, but not always necessary
Terraform is especially useful for software that runs across multiple environments and has clear requirements around management, release control, and transferability. It fits managed cloud environments such as AWS, where infrastructure quickly grows into multiple services. For a small and simple environment with few Glossary · In briefdependencyA dependency is a software component or system that other software needs in order to build or run, such as a library, framework or external service.Read more, a lighter approach can be enough. We choose Terraform when the operational benefits outweigh the extra complexity.

Practical examples
Infrastructure as Code in our projects
In several projects we use Infrastructure as Code to keep cloud environments transferable and easier to manage. In the public cases of Zetprofiel and Recharge.com you can see how infrastructure, release control, and ownership come together.
